DID YOU KNOW?
Lincoln Park Zoo, established in 1868, is one of the oldest zoos in the United States. It is particularly well known for its collection of apes that live together in family groups as well as for its gorilla-breeding program.
The zoo is home to more than 80 species of mammals, both exotic and ordinary. Many come from continents such as Africa and Australia and visitors might find it hard to identify them all. Some of the popular mammals found at the Lincoln Park zoo include sun bears, camels and lions, amongst many others.
The visitors, if that is more of their style can enjoy about 70 species of reptiles and fish. Moreover, there are about 300 birds on display at the zoo as well as a number of penguins, including the king penguins.
