zoo terrain for 1920 till 1930

[Grimm]

I think about a new table for some 45 Adventure Games a mix of Big cities and my DA terrain/animals.
So have one some ideas how a zoo look in 1920 till 1930 ?

pictures maybe?

cheers Grimm

Awesome idea!

Now, the main thing would be that species-appropriate keeping of animals was still far, far away. So you would like stone or concrete walls, with high iron fences/bars; additionally, some water trenches might be authentic.

Some lion dens, constructed in 1908:

Also holes. The bears hole in Paris in 1910 (there was a flood). I love the climbing pole.
