Just Things Of Life's video: Hamburg Zoo

Hamburg Zoo The Tierpark Hagenbeck is a zoo in Stellingen, a quarter in Hamburg, Germany. The collection began in 1863 with animals that belonged to Carl Hagenbeck Sr. (1810–1887), a fishmonger who became an amateur animal collector. The park itself was founded by Carl Hagenbeck Jr. in 1907. It is known for being the first zoo to use open enclosures surrounded by moats, rather than barred cages, to better approximate animals' natural environments. For over 100 years, the 25 hectares of grounds have been delighting visitors of all ages with an amazing variety of botanical species, protected views, open-air enclosures and numerous cultural monuments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tierpark_Hagenbeck http://www.hagenbeck.de/en/tierpark/start.html
