Last week Hippo"Nicole"gave birth to a, unfortunately, dead born calf.The cause isn't known yet. Berlin Zoo is the only german zoo still breeding hippos-but for how long ?
New map of the zoo, published by the B.Z.(Berliner Zeitung).It is a "View for Free" map and shows alll the points, where you can see around 50 species for FREE form the outside of the zoo... B.Z. Berlin - Berliner Zoo für lau: Hier gucken Sie gratis
Ha, that's cheeky . I walked around the zoo the day before I went in, saw quite a bit of the animals (but not 50 I don't think). It is one of the few zoos that you can see a lot from the outside, I can't think of any others that you can see that many from.
Next Time I'm in Berlin, I will try this free route-the zoo is nice, but not that good as others,and, of course, it is defenitely too expensive, and on the free route, I can see some cool animals !
