      This postcard have to be from the 30's or 40's. São Paulo was a smaller city at this time.

      Not a Zoo any more, only a very small part is open to visitors. Working actually only with research: flu vaccines, antivenom injections, etc.

      They have a nice collection including the very rare Bothrops insularis, Lachesis rhombeata, and all other venomous reptiles of Brasil.

      How in the world did they keep the snake on top of a building with such low fences?!?!
