The History of Zoos Wild animals have, throughout history, intrigued the human race. We are amazed by their diversity of form and entertained by their actions. The first wild animal menageries are recorded as far back as Ancient Egypt where wild animals - regarded as objects of wealth - were presented as gifts to the pharaohs. The Romans also viewed animals as objects believing that they were created solely for the convenience of humans. The Roman philosopher Cicero wrote "We are the absolute masters of what the earth produces" and under Roman law, animals had no rights. Creating their own form of entertainment, the Romans flocked to see hundred of thousands of lions, tigers, elephants, leopards and bears forced to fight each other - as well as human gladiators - to the death. These 'games' continued for more than 500 years. King Henry 1st created the first wild animal menagerie in Britain at Woodstock, England, which later was re-housed at the Tower of London by Henry III in the 13th Century. He introduced the first elephant to Britain, which was presented to him as a gift. Animal menageries remained private collections and it was not until the early part of the 19th Century that animal collections started to become accessible to the general public with the opening of zoological collections in Paris, Vienna, Dublin and later London. The 'zoo' concept had been established.

A brief overview of zoological practices from 4500 B.C. to the 20th century.

History of Zoology
Zoo also called Zoological Garden, or Zoological Park, a place where wild animals and, in some instances, domesticated animals are exhibited in captivity. In such an establishment animals can generally be given more intensive care than is possible in nature reserves or sanctuaries. It is not exactly known when the earliest zoos were established, but it is possible that they were associated with the first attempts at animal domestication.
4500 – 2500 BC
Pigeons were kept in captivity as early as 4500 BC in what is now Iraq, and 2,000 years later elephants were semi-domesticated in India. The earliest known examples of zoo management date back to the ancient Egyptians who began keeping wild animals. Antelopes, including the addax, ibex, oryx, and gazelle, are depicted wearing collars on Egyptian tomb pictures at Saqqara, dating from 2500 BC.
1500 BC
The pharaohs of later periods such as Tuthmosis III (1501-1447 BC) imported many animals to Egypt. Queen Hatshephut, his stepmother, organised expeditions to capture wild animals as far afield as Somalia. Those expeditions brought back monkeys, leopards, cheetahs, various birds, large cattle and even giraffe.
1000 BC
In China, the Empress Tanki, who probably lived about 1150 BC, built a great marble "house of deer"; and Wen Wang, who apparently reigned just before 1000 BC, established a zoo of 1,500 acres in extent, which he named the Ling-Yu, or Garden of Intelligence.
