Rosetown Zoo

The Rosetown Zoo and Botanic Garden is a zoological garden in Rosetown. Founded in 1862, this is the oldest and largest zoo in Brunant.

The Rosetown Zoo was started in 1862 as an animal garden where the Rosetown wealthy could see a variety of exotic animals. The zoo was highly popular but an inability to care for such animals led to most dying off from disease and malnutrition. In 1866 more local and European animals were introduced to better care for them. From 1910 to 1960 the zoo was vastly expanded to include more animals and exhibits.

The zoo includes an aviary and butterfly exhibit, different areas for mammals, serpents, wild cats and bugs and a section dedicated to amphibious animals. From 1890 to 1935 a botanical garden was added to the zoo, with many varieties of trees, plants and flowers.
