https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71MoieY4TMY Royal Zoo, known as the Melbourne Zoo, contains more than 320 species of animals from Australia and around the world. The Royal Melbourne was opened on October 6, 1862, on the Royal Park and occupies 55 acres (22 hectares) of the territory allocated to Melbourne. Initially, the Zoo has adapted to acclimate to pets after a long trip to Australia. It was until the time the new director Alexander Albert Cochrane Le Souef in 1870 comes, they start to acquire exotic animals for public display and arrange gardens and picnic areas. Visitors can see historic cells, which were used for customers who can spend the night in tents at the zoo and enjoy the sounds of the bush night. These evenings allow you to see some of the nocturnal animals at the zoo during the evening excursions. The Zoo is set amidst floral gardens. Many of the animals are now kept in bioclimatic zones: African rainforests set gorillas, mandrill, pygmy hippos, and parrots; The Asian Rainforest with tigers and otters; and for Australian animals, koalas kangaroos, emus, echidnas, wombats created the conditions of the Australian mainland. A popular place for the public is the home of butterflies and a huge enclosure for the elephants. Melbourne Zoo recently received three new Asian elephants from Thailand, despite the many disputes concerning their safety and well-being https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HpUcLy-7MY Королевский Зоопарк, известный как Melbourne Zoo, содержит более 320 видов животных из Австралии и всего мира. The Royal Melbourne Zoo был открыт 6 октября 1862 года, на территории Royal Park и занимает 55 акров (22 га) территории выделенной городом Мельбурн. Первоначально зоопарк был приспособлен для акклиматизации домашних животных после долгой поездки в Австралию. Это было до тех порб пока директором парка стал с назначением Александр Альберт Cochrane Le Souef в 1870 году, после этогостали спезиально приобретать экзотических животных для публичного показа, а также были разбиты сады и выделены места для пикников. Посетителям предоставляется возможность увидеть исторические клетки, которые использовались для клиентов, которые могли провести всю ночь в палатках в зоопарке и насладиться звуками ночного буша. Эти вечера позволяют увидеть некоторых из ночных животных в зоопарке во время вечерних экскурсий. Зоопарк расположен среди цветочных садов. Многие из животных в настоящее время содержаться в биоклиматических зонах: Африканские тропические леса разьещают горилл, мандрил, карликовых бегемотов и попугаев; создан Азиатский Rainforest с тиграми и выдрами; и для австралийских животных коал, кенгуру, эму, ехидны, вомбатов созданы условия австралийского материка. Популярным местом для публики является дом бабочек и огромный вольер для слонов. Melbourne Zoo недавно получил три новых азиатских слона из Таиланда, несмотря на многочисленные споры относительно их безопасности и благополучия. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bGdP1xrpSs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG_g7bSf8ZY
