Wellington Zoo (Māori: Rawhi Whakaaturanga o Te Whanganui-a-Tara) is a 13-hectare (32-acre) zoo in the green belt of Wellington, New Zealand. Wellington Zoo was opened in 1906 by the late Prime Minister Richard Seddon after he was given a young lion – later named King Dick – by the Bostock and Wombwell's Circus. Over time the zoo was expanded and upgraded. Historically, Wellington Zoo operated under the auspices of the Wellington City Council. However, in June 2003. the zoo became a charitable trust and is now governed by a board of six trustees, with the Wellington City Council as the principal source of funds. More information...
