Brookfield Zoo 2003 - Exhibit in the Swamp

April 2003

Exhibit in the Swamp.

oh dear....

And this means?

Maybe he ment "Oh deer", saying, that here could live a group of swamp-deers

If the "oh dear "is referring to this being a bad exhibit its simply not true.The Swamp is an old primate house converted in 1993 into a multi species exhibit called the swamp.This building houses a wide variety of birds and reptiles as well as otters.Brookfield does a wonder job of preserving its history while at the same time improving with the times.

I love it when a zoo will embrace its history (why I like Saint Louis so much), and this is another reason I would love to go to Chicago this summer.

What Species are held in the swamp?
