“A Day at the Zoo!”: those five words conjure up many happy childhood memories. To the young, the national collection of animals is so much more exciting than, for example, the national collection of pictures. The public wanted creatures that were curious, wild, ferocious and very different from European animals, to provide a change of scene and a chance to dream of distant lands.
The exhibition showcases a collection of rare books related both to the animals and the zoos where they are housed.
