Dudley Zoo, Zoo in Dudley, England.
The 40-acre Dudley Zoo contains over 1500 animals from 200 species within a densely wooded site surrounding an 11th-century castle.
Earl William Humble Eric Ward established the zoo in 1937, constructing thirteen modernist buildings designed by architect Berthold Lubetkin using reinforced concrete.
The zoological gardens feature twelve listed architectural structures created by the Tecton Group, representing a significant collection of 1930s modernist design.
Visitors can participate in keeper experiences, adopt animals, and explore both the zoo grounds and castle ruins through various themed walking routes.
The snow leopards, tigers, and primates inhabit enclosures integrated into the medieval castle grounds, creating a combination of wildlife and historical architecture.
