The London Zoo is Britain's best known zoo, it's National zoo, and one of th most famous and prestigious collections in the world. It is the primary home of the Zoological Society of London, and it occupies thirty six acres of a Royal Park, less than two miles from the centre of the city of London. The Zoo began life in 1828 as a centre for the scientific study of exotic animals and only opened its doors to the public in 1847. Attractions, opening the world's first reptile house in 1849, the first public aquarium in 1853, the first insect house in 1881 and since then it has consistently been developing new the first children's in 1938. The Zoo is in a Regent Park, and many children with their parents and friends visit it every day. It is open every day from 9 o'clock in the morning to 7 o'clock in the evening. People who want to go there can go by bus or by the underground and bus. A lot of buses go to the different sides of the park. Many kinds of animals live there: elephants, giraffes, sea-lions and polar bears, brown bears and foxes, and big and little monkeys. There are many exotic animals at London Zoo. It is home to over one hundred species that are currently listed as threatened. There are many different kinds of birds there too. Some of them have very beautiful bright colors.

A good time to visit the animals is when they take their food. Then you can see how the sea-lions catch their fish. The man who looks after the animals sometimes throws a fish into the water, then the sea-lions jump into the water and get the fish there. It is also interesting to watch how the big birds eat their meat, and how the monkeys eat fruit. In the large monkey house you can see different kinds of monkeys. They jump, run and play with each other. In the park there are camels. Children love to sit on a camel's back. Then it walks in the a square and they sit high up on its back. They also like to watch the elephant when he washes himself in the morning. He puts water on his back and men with long brushes make him very clean.

In the Children's Zoo children can watch and talk to and touch young animals. Of course the people who look after the young animals watch the children too. If people want to see the fishes they must go to another house and pay a second time. The Fishes are in a great glass box. There are many different kinds of beautiful fishes there. It Is very interesting.
