Cincinnati,<\/span><\/a> or, as I call it, Cinci, would not be much different from other American cities if it were not for the<\/span> German spirit<\/span><\/a> hovering in the air: houses, breweries, the American analogue of<\/span> Oktoberfest<\/span><\/a>, and for its famous Cincinnati Zoo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some people do not like Zoos and perceive the zoo as a place as a jail for animals.<\/span><\/p>\n

That can be true but there are also normal zoos where animals are in their native environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many Zoos have terrible conditions for keeping animals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some entrepreneurs often do not register animals officially and conduct part of their activities illegally, and smuggling of animals also takes place.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Cincinnati Zoo<\/a> is an excellent example of a right Zoo.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Cincinnati Zoo has the main function of preserving biodiversity.<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea is to create a bank of animals distributed throughout the planet.<\/span><\/p>\n

When someone in the wild is threatened, you can pull the species out at the expense of the zoo population’s descendants.<\/span><\/p>\n

For this, there are special programs at Cincinnati Zoo<\/a> for genetic accounting of animals and cross-zoo crossing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why is the Cincinnati Zoo So Famous?<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is <\/i><\/b>the greenest zoo in the US.<\/p>\n

The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is a home to about 2,000 animals, including<\/span>the famous hippo, Fiona.<\/span><\/p>\n

It covers an area of 75 acres and has over 3,000 plant species, making it the greenest zoo in the US.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cincinnati Zoo in Ohio receives more than 1.5 million visitors annually.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Special About Cincinnati Zoo?<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u00a0It is the second oldest zoo in the United States after Lincoln Park Zoo(<\/i><\/b>Chicago<\/i><\/b><\/a>).<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Cincinnati Zoo is also considered the world leader in the field of protection and conservation of endangered species of animals and plants.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The Zoological Society of Cincinnati was founded in 1873.<\/span><\/p>\n

But the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden officially opened its doors in 1875.<\/span><\/p>\n

The zoo’s initial animal collection was very small, initially consisting of eight monkeys, two grizzly bears<\/a>, three deer, six raccoons, two elk, a buffalo, a hyena, a tiger, a crocodile, a circus elephant, and about 400 birds.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Right Now the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is considered a benchmark for many others. The zoo contains over 500 animals and 3,000 plant species.<\/span><\/p>\n

The zoo is located on 65 hectares in the city center.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1987, thanks to the architectural originality of the Elephant House, the Reptile House and the Passenger Pigeon Memorial, the zoo was included in the list of National Historic Landmarks.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the building of <\/span>the House of<\/b> Reptil<\/b><\/a>es, built in 1875, is the oldest building on the territory of all zoos in the country.<\/span><\/p>\n

The zoo has extensive experience in keeping animals in captivity.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 1986, a center for the protection and research of rare animals was founded here.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cincinnati Zoo at Covid Pandemic<\/b><\/h2>\n

Since the start of the pandemic, the coronavirus has spread to zoos and farms around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Individual species turned out to be infected – big cats, monkeys and minks.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the end of 2020, 17 million minks were destroyed in Denmark after outbreaks and viral mutations were reported on more than 200 fur farms.<\/span><\/p>\n

As for Cincinnati Zoo, there were 80 animals vaccinated against coronavirus.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vaccinations have been given to felines, monkeys, pandas, goats, giraffes, river otters, skunks, and some dogs<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

These animals received two doses of a vaccine intended for veterinary use<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of them were administered without anesthesia.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the Best Day to Visit the Cincinnati Zoo?<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u00a0Any working day from 10 in the morning.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Cincinnati Zoo instills an ecological culture in children, acquaints them with the outside world.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Cincinnati Zoo, as a rule, there are separate educational programs for children and adults, advanced training courses for specialists.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zoo als operates a rehabilitation center where they accept injured or “unnecessary” animals, treat them and, if possible, return them to nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

Does Cincinnati Zoo Still Have Elephants?<\/b><\/h2>\n
\"What
What is The Best Day to Visit the Cincinnati Zoo?<\/span><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Yes, Nowadays there are 4 elephants.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The animal enclosures at the Cincinnati Zoo reflect the diversity and natural habitat of its inhabitants.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden contain many animal habitats such as Savannah Courtyard, Hippo Cove, Giraffe Deck.<\/span><\/p>\n

The savannah section gives you a glimpse of life in the wild and is home to a cheetah encounter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other animals that live here are African lions, Masai giraffes, African painted dogs<\/a>, African servals, Anatolian shepherds.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are over 30 penguins in the massive<\/span> African penguin habitat.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

In addition to a thriving penguin colony, you will see eastern white pelicans, white-breasted cormorants and yellow-billed ducks.<\/span><\/p>\n

I really enjoyed watching the popular penguin parade at the Cincinnati Zoo<\/a>, where the king penguins pass through the audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can experience the rainforest ecosystem of Asia and Africa<\/span> by hiking<\/span><\/a> the jungle trail.<\/span><\/p>\n

Endangered primates such as orangutans, gibbons and bonobos live indoors and outdoors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sculptures and murals, a wild soundtrack and exotic flora and fauna complete the atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Insect World was built in 1978 and was the first insect-themed enclosure in any US zoo.<\/span><\/p>\n

The realistic exhibit includes an indoor tropical butterfly aviary, innovative signage, graphics, videos and interactive activities to attract visitors.<\/span><\/p>\n

What I like about Cincinnati Zoo?<\/b><\/h2>\n

In Cincinnati Zoo, animals are protected from many of the threats that await them in the wild: parasites, starvation, hunting and poaching, extreme weather, and eventually disease and premature death.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here 100% all animals regularly undergo medical examinations, have a full diet and receive the necessary care.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Cincinnati Zoo is trying to enrich the environment of animals, take care of their psychological health.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zoo does most of the research on the lifestyle of animals, their psychology and behavior, this helps to adjust measures for the conservation of the species in wild nature.<\/span><\/p>\n
