The Beijing Zoo was formely called the "Garden of Ten Thousand Animals by the Founder, the Emperor Guan Xiu from the Qing Dynasty in 1906.
It has most of the Chinese species which amounts to more than 5000 mammals, not including the numerous birds, reptiles, fish and amphibians.
The Zoo is still under construction, and hopefully in the near future this 86 hectares of land and 8.6 hectares of water will
accomodate more comfortably the bigger animals which seem to be in too small enclosures.
