Mendoza Zoological Park, Provincial zoo at Cerro de la Gloria, Mendoza, Argentina.
The zoological park spans 48 hectares on the northeast slope of Cerro de la Gloria, featuring 6.5 kilometers of pathways throughout the grounds.
Landscape architect Carlos Thays established the original site in 1903, which was later relocated to its current location and reopened in 1941.
The zoological park serves as an educational center where visitors learn about wildlife conservation while exploring the diverse collection of animal species.
The single entrance to the zoological park is located on Avenida Libertador, with clear pathways connecting all animal observation areas.
A 2016 court ruling recognized a chimpanzee named Cecilia as a legal person, leading to her transfer to a specialized shelter.
