Come face to face with all kinds of animals from all over the world at the Paris Zoological Park. Formerly known as the Bois de Vincennes Zoological Park, the park is divided into different zones that provide lots to explore. Paris Zoological Park underwent two years of refurbishment work in 2014. The animals are grouped into five biozones. As you travel through the park, move from Europe to Madagascar, from Africa to Patagonia and the Amazon. In the African zone, expect sightings of lions, giraffes, and zebras. Europe has wolves, lynxes, and otters. The Amazon zone has jaguars, monkeys, and macaws, while Patagonia has penguins, pumas, and pudus. These are just some of the zones and only a few of the animals. There are also birds, lizards, snakes, tarantulas, frogs, fish, and mammals big and small. If you’re an animal lover, there will be plenty here to put a smile on your face.
