Tallinn Zoo

Tallinn Zoo is a zoo that was established in Tallinn, Estonia, in 1939. The only zoo in Estonia, it had 13,336 animals from 548 different species as of 2012. It has been the most frequented zoo in the Baltic states since 2009. A squad of Estonian marksmen gained the title of World Champions in Helsinki in 1937. They carried Illu, a baby lynx, back with them. Illu was the zoo's inaugural exhibit when it was publicly launched on August 25, 1939. Later, the lynx was selected as the zoo's logo animal.

Out of all the Nordic nations, Tallinn Zoo offers the most fascinating array of species. Giant elephants, rhinos, polar bears, hazardous predators, and numerous more exotic species can all be found there. Ibex and mountain sheep have one of the top exhibits in the world at the Tallinn Zoo.

Participation in projects aimed at protecting endangered species is one of zoos' key tasks. You assist efforts to conserve species by going to the Tallinn Zoo.
