ZSL London Zoo

London Zoo, previously known as ZSL London Zoo or London Zoological Gardens and sometimes called Regent's Park Zoo, is the world's oldest scientific zoo. It was opened in London on 27 April 1828 and was originally intended to be used as a collection for scientific study. In 1831 or 1832, the animals of the Tower of London menagerie were transferred to the zoo's collection. It was opened to the public in 1847. As of December 2022, it houses a collection of 14,926 individuals, making it one of the largest collections in the United Kingdom.

25th July 2026: the machine is currently out of order. Spoke to a member of staff who said they’d had an engineer out but that they’d ordered the wrong blanks so the machine wasn’t rolling the designs fully onto the blanks. They are looking at fixing it!
