This 17-hectare large municipal zoo in Rome feels more like a safari, as there are no bars in many parts of the Zoo. The Zoo's animal population numbers over a 1 000 animals from more than 200 species. Among its main attractions belong its two newest exhibits: the orangutan exposition, opened in 2014, and its Sumatran tiger exhibit, opened in 2015.
The Zoo was first opened in 1911. Since then, the exhibits have undergone many reconstructions and changes in design to reflect the new standards of animal care and to help the Zoo better serve as one of the institutions preserving the endangered species around the world.
It is forbidden to take dogs into the Zoo.
