The zoo has some of the most unique and interesting exhibits in the country. The African Crocodile Exhibit features a large pond for two species of crocodiles and two large glass viewing windows that allows guests to get nose to nose with these ancient giants. The exhibit contains two Nile crocodiles and Slender-snout crocodiles within a simulated habitat. The environment of these animals has been threatened by habitat destruction and for the value of their hides. The zoo is dedicated to the preservation and breeding of crocodiles through research and education. The Colobus Monkey exhibit is another popular attraction at the Alexandria Zoo. These endangered arboreal primates are hunted in areas of Central Africa for their luxurious pelts of black and white fur.  The Red River Hogs exhibit features five hogs on display. These omnivorous members of the pig family hail from central and southern Africa and have beautiful coats of red and white hair. Guests are invited to come and say hello to the Red River Hog family when visiting the zoo.

I don't have any guides of this zoo. Does any body know if they made any guides? And where I can get those?

 

 

In the years 1951, 1976 and 2001 they had theire anniversarrys. Have they made any books on this occassion?
