Four zoos that come to mind that phased out elephants then brought them back a few years later are Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo (no elephants from...
Lincoln Park and Brookfield have many that I wish they still had. Among them: Lincoln Park - Mandrill, Drill, Arabian Oryx, Waterbuck (they were...
Just posted a list myself I forgot about the Arabian oryx, I want to say they also had Sable antelope as well while I know the old exhibits were...
