Description


Tsimbazaza Zoo

Tsimbazaza Zoo is a zoo and botanical garden in southern Antananarivo, Madagascar, located just north of the National Assembly of Madagascar building. It is the only zoo of its kind in Madagascar. On November 1989, the WWF celebrated its tenth year in Madagascar by opening an environmental teaching center at the zoo. It is said to house "the finest collection of Madagascan wildlife", with several unique species on display. The zoo has a museum with collections of tribal carvings and the skeleton of an elephant bird adjoining the skeleton of an ‘ostrich for sale’.[2] In the early 2000s the death rate of lemurs at the zoo was high and was investigated.[3]
