About this episode
The Zoo is a Scarborough institution. But it raises the question: what is a zoo in Toronto’s eyes? Is it an animal sanctuary? A school field trip factory? A conservation lab? On this episode of Muddy York, we'll look at the history of the high-minded, ethically ambitious and chaotically managed mega-zoo that we know today as well as the Riverdale Zoo that came before it.You can follow Muddy York on Twitter: Toronto_History, Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/muddyyork.bsky.social and Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/muddyyorkhistory/.
