Jinan Zoo, Public zoo in Tianqiao District, China.

Jinan Zoo is a large zoological park in northern Jinan, Shandong, with four zones: animal display, entertainment, education and catering. Its grounds include a five-hectare bamboo forest planted in the 1970s and a walk-through herbivore habitat built in 2000. The collection numbers over 5,000 animals of more than 300 species, among them giant pandas, golden snub-nosed monkeys and white tigers.

The facility was originally founded as Taurus Park in 1959 and opened to visitors in 1960. It received its current name in the late 1980s.

The zoo serves as a place where visitors come together to observe animals and learn about different species and their habitats. Local families use the space regularly for outings, making it a common gathering spot for children and adults to spend time outdoors together.

The zoo lies in the northern part of Jinan, not the city centre. Jinan Zoo Station is a BRT Line 4 stop and the terminus for bus routes 4, 5, 12, 15, 30 and 35; many other routes also stop here. The main entrance faces the Jinan Planetarium diagonally across the street, with a shopping mall and the Jinan Restaurant to the east.

Willie, a male wolf born in Nuremberg in 1976, was donated to Jinan by the Barcelona International Wolf Breeding Center and paired with a female named Lady in 2009. Keepers noted that he stopped touching his food until she had finished eating, and that he still dug holes and hid food in them despite years in captivity.
