Take
a Ride on the Wild Side
The
world's first and only African Animal Carousel,
created by Carousel Works in Mansfield, Ohio, is an exciting component
of the Zoo's new Africa! exhibit. The carousel features 42 hand-carved,
hand-painted figures and two ornate chariots. In all, 24 African
animal species grace the new carousel, including gorillas, leopards,
ostriches, mandrills and more! Also, replicas of 16 meticulously
detailed paintings by renowned wildlife artist Harold Roe adorn
the carousel.
