Brookfield Zoo Map, 1980

AHHH MY EYES! Those bright colors make the text really difficult to read and the map is ultimately not pleasant to the eyes at all. Glad they redid this.

Some notes:

• Tropic World was under construction at this time and not open to the public; the relevant animals were still at Primate House. The guidebook includes a description of the exhibit plans (which at this point was only primates) and some construction photos.
  
• Siberian Ibex were housed at both The Mountain and the Ridge, separated between these locations when outside breeding season, as mentioned in the guidebook. They are not different species exhibits.
  
• The original dolphinarium was located in the southwest corner, with other small aquatic tanks inside the building and the pinniped exhibits outside. This was changed in the 1980s. I notice some on zoochat believe the current dolphinarium is the same building as the original but it is not.
• Okapi were included in the Giraffe House, not Hoofed Animals at this time.

I am tempted to list other differences but species stuff is probably best for the forum.

@birdsandbats It is slightly less bright in person if it helps I had to saturate the colors a little for better display here. Definitely glad they switched away from pink though.
