The Chemnitz Zoo (German: Tierpark Chemnitz) is a zoo in the city Chemnitz in Sachsen, Germany.
The Zoo was opened in 1964, and covers 1 000 animals from 200 species, living on 10 hectares (24.7 acres). During the first decenniums most species reflected the nature of the Soviet Union, and later the zoo reconcepted into breeding of endangered species. In 2014 The Zoo had 178.233 visitors.[1] In 2004 a lion wounded a female zookeeper, and in 2006 another female zookeeper was killed by a leopard.[5]
