| Video Discription | The National Zoological Park, commonly known as the National Zoo, is one of the oldest zoos in the United States. It is part of the Smithsonian Institution and does not charge admission. Founded in 1889, its mission is to "provide engaging experiences with animals and create and share knowledge to save wildlife and habitats". Exhibits Asia Trail A group of Asia-themed exhibits opened in 2006. Along with the giant pandas, the area also displays sloth bears, fishing cats, red pandas, a clouded leopard, Asian small-clawed otters, and Asian elephants. David M. Rubenstein Giant Panda Habitat The zoo's Giant Panda Habitat features three outdoor areas with animal enrichment, as well as an indoor area with a rocky outcrop, a waterfall, and viewing areas. The zoo's pandas, named Mei Xiang and Tian Tian, are on loan from the China Wildlife Conservation Association, and will live at the zoo until 2023. They are the focus of a research, conservation, and breeding program that aims to preserve the species. The exhibit is designed to replicate the rocky, lush terrain of the pandas' natural habitat. Elephant Trails In spring 2008, the National Zoo began construction on Elephant Trails, a new home for its Asian elephants. The first part of the $52 million project opened in September 2010, expanding the zoo's former elephant area with a 5,700-square-foot (530 m2) barn, two new yards (one with a pool), and a quarter-mile (400 m) walkway through woods,[30] a total of 1.9 acres (0.77 ha) of outdoor space, bringing the total size of Elephant Trails to 2 acres (0.81 ha). Lemur Island Lemur Island is a moated island that is home to a group of ring-tailed lemurs and black-and-white ruffed lemurs. The Small Mammal House The majority of the zoo's smaller mammal species live in the Small Mammal House. The American Trail The American Trail exhibit houses a variety of North American species. The Great Ape House The Great Ape House is separated into two sets of enclosures. One houses seven orangutans. The other houses five western lowland gorillas. Gibbon Ridge Gibbon Ridge is an enclosure housing two siamangs (a male named Bradley and a female named Ronnie). Great Cats on Lion and Tiger Hill Great Cats is separated into three enclosures. The zoo rotates 6 lions and 3 tigers between the three exhibits. The Cheetah Conservation Station This is an outdoor exhibit designed to mimic the African savanna and educate visitors about cheetahs and what is being done to preserve them in the wild. The main part of the Cheetah Conservation Station consists of two enclosures separated by a fence. One enclosure houses the cheetahs, while the other houses the Grévy's zebra. Other animals on display in the area include scimitar oryxes, dama gazelles, Rüppell's vultures, sitatunga, red river hogs, maned wolves, Abyssinian ground hornbills and lesser kudu. The Kids' Farm The Kids' Farm is aimed primarily at children and housing domesticated livestock. The Kids' Farm due to budgetary constraints. However, a $1.4 million donation from State Farm Insurance allowed the exhibit to remain open. The Reptile Discovery Center The zoo's reptile and amphibian house exhibits seventy species of reptiles and amphibians. ________________________________________________________________________ Subscribe To My Channel For More Great Videos Like This https://www.youtube.com/c/TomsRoadTrippin Donate To My Road Trip Gas Fund https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=CRFKS2DCLBN2A Send Me Mail Tom's Road Trippin 19046 Bruce B.
