Zürich Zoo opened in 1929 on the lower slopes of the Zürichberg, in the Fluntern quarter of Zurich. Its animals live in habitats grouped by region, among them the Masoala Rainforest, a hall recreating a forest of Madagascar, and the Kaeng Krachan Elephant Park, where a wide wooden roof spans the indoor enclosure of the Asian elephants.
