Paris Zoological Park, also known as the Bois de Vincennes Zoological Park, is part of the National Museum of Natural History and emphasizes the naturalistic display of animal behavior. Following a significant renovation, the zoo now spans a larger area and hosts an impressive 255 species, including ring-tailed lemurs, giraffes, zebras, jaguars, penguins, and pumas. Visitors can explore various biozones, each designed to mimic the natural habitats of the animals, and also enjoy temporary exhibitions that add to the educational experience.
