Wide of main lake in Giza Zoo\u003cbr/\u003eFor Egyptian families, it is an affordable place to take the children, and see the animals. \u003cbr/\u003eFor tourists it is a way to spend an afternoon, and see the lions. \u003cbr/\u003eBut with Egypt's tourism dwindling, now the animals in Giza Zoo are being affected. \u003cbr/\u003eThey say an elephant never forgets. \u003cbr/\u003eAnd at Giza Zoo perhaps feeding the elephants will be a memorable experience for these children. \u003cbr/\u003eThe two old elephants at the zoo are perhaps the most iconic creatures at the zoo and are at least 60 years old.  \u003cbr/\u003eBuilt in 1891, the Zoo is based on the design of London Zoo, and built by Khedive Ismail. \u003cbr/\u003eLocated on the western side of the River Nile, the zoo is about 80 acres of green land, and is home to many rare animals and plant species. \u003cbr/\u003eThe zoo contains about 175 different species of mammals, birds and reptiles.\u003cbr/\u003eThe zoo is a popular place for Egyptian families despite the decline in Egypt's tourism: \"My children's favourite animals are the monkeys, lions, elephants and the seal. I guess they are loved by all children,\" says one father.\u003cbr/\u003eAnd while the zoo remains popular with families, activists say the conditions at the zoo are worsening, and some of the animal enclosures need to be upgraded, and animal welfare to improve. \u003cbr/\u003eGiza Zoo recently introduced some new animals to the Zoo such as a rare Asian white lion and three african giraffes replacing the late african giraffe that died back in 2002.\u003cbr/\u003eBut activists such as Dina Zulfakar say the zoo should focus on upgrading the enclosures for the existing animals, and not spend limited resources on new arrivals.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Some enclosures, they need urgent attention, the elephants enclosure, the chimps enclosure, the bears enclosure. They have to be rebuilt, or making new enclosures, it's out of the question in Giza priorities. Why spend the money on new arrivals when we didn't fix the problems we had before?\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe zoo lost its membership of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums after a polar bear died in 2004 after it was unable to cope with the hot climes in Cairo. \u003cbr/\u003eThe zoo's Brown Bear died in 2008, and now the zoo is restricted to only keeping Black American Bears. \u003cbr/\u003eZulfakar says the cages for the animals are too small, and the cooling system for the bears does not work properly. \u003cbr/\u003eBut the zoo says that more than 35 veterinary physicians take care of the animals health programme. \u003cbr/\u003eThe director of the Zoo says that while the Zoo is not regarded as one of the best zoos in the world, it is unique. \u003cbr/\u003e\"People are always misled in the ranking of Giza Zoo amongst the international zoos.
