Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
Although compact this zoo has a vast assortment of animals well presented in a great park like setting It is conveniently located directly adjacent to the Central Railway Station
I remember you could see some of the trains in the station from the top of the bear enclosures. Great zoo, some classic buildings and some amazing animals.
Beware! Diamond merchants on the other side of the station.
Isn't it the diamond cutting capitol of the world Bob (or is it 48th Street in NY)
Antwerp zoo proves that you do not need huge acreage to have a world class zoo.
I was truly amazed at how much & how well presented it all was The design & layout along with incredible land & tree scapeing allowed each exhibit area seem to be alone in view
I have no idea about the current state of the Toronto Zoo but many years back when in it's infancy there seemed to be a gazillion open acres with very few animals & not much else to enjoy
I've had great opportunities to visit some of the world's finest zoos with incredible collections presented well A favorite is Taronga Zoo across Sydney Harbor from Circular Quay where all the ferries start from
