The Griffith Park Zoo in HDR
L.A.'s Griffith Park Zoo, also known as the Old L.A. Zoo, opened in 1912 and was closed in 1966. The enclosures seen here in these photos were added to the zoo in the 1930s. The Los Angeles Zoo that we know today, which is only a few miles away from this site, opened in 1966 and took control of the animals that were left in this zoo. This zoo area is now a public park run and maintained by the city of Los Angeles, and admission is now free!
