The Buttonwood Park Zoo, established in 1894, is the 12th oldest zoo in the United States and has been an important part of the SouthCoast community for 130 years. The Zoo features over 240 species, most notably Asian elephants, red pandas, cougars, eagles, seals, otters, South American primates and numerous waterfowl species. BPZOO is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and has been recognized as “one of the finest small zoos in the United States”.

as I sad the zoo is small and its not one of the big open zoos where you can see many of the animals without having to look through the wires of the cages, I do my bets when I can to get shots where the cage doesnt show, but sometimes expecially if the anaimal is close tot he fence its impossible to noty see it in photos
