Bronx Zoo
Manhattan-adjacent wildlife park
The Bronx Zoo is a large zoological park in the Bronx borough of New York City, one of the largest urban zoos in the United States.
Opened in 1899, it houses thousands of animals across diverse habitats.
The name sometimes appears figuratively to describe chaotic or unruly situations: This meeting has turned into a total Bronx Zoo.
