German Zoo Celebrates 150 Years

By Linda Tancs

Germany’s Cologne Zoo, the country’s third oldest, is celebrating its 150th anniversary.  To celebrate this historic event, the zoo will remain open until 10 p.m. on Saturdays throughout August.  Other specials include an exhibition of the zoo’s 150 years every first Sunday of the month at 11 a.m. and the chance to experience Nile crocodiles and hippos with the building of the Hippodome to coincide with the anniversary.
