The ZOO Bratislava is a 96-hectare (240-acre) zoo in Bratislava, Slovakia, in the borough of Karlova Ves. It lies in the Little Carpathians forest. As of 2007, the zoo has an area of 96-hectare (240-acre), and is home to 1307 specimens of 152 animal species.
A proposal to establish a zoo in Bratislava first appeared in 1948. Two alternatives presented for the zoo's location: Železná studienka within the Bratislava Forest Park and Mlynská dolina. The latter was chosen as the place for the new zoo, although it was first planned to be used as part of a cultural park on the Danube riverfront. It was given an area of 9 hectares (22 acres), with a potential for expansion up to 90 hectares (220 acres) Construction began in 1959, and the zoo was officially opened on 9 May 1960. The zoo has undergone two major reductions, the first in 1981-1985, as a result of sewage system and motorway feeder construction, which reduced the area of the zoo to one-third, and the second in 2003, when construction for the D2 motorway access road to the Sitina Tunnel forced a relocation of the entrance gate.
The Bratislava Zoo contains a fine collection of 147 different species of animals and 617 animals in total.
Open daily throughout the year.
