Abstract:

The North Carolina Zoological Park pays tribute to Africa by hosting animals such as lions, giraffes, and rhinoceros. The zoo is a natural habitat zoo, which means the animals are kept in surroundings similar to the ones they inhabit in the wild. It is the first and second-largest natural-habitat zoo in the world.
