Despre
zoo
In 1929 s-a deschis in
padurea Dumbrava prima Gradina Zoologica din Romania de catre
Intreprinderea de electricitate la initiativa inginerului Szekely caruia
i-a venit ideea dupa ce a gasit niste vulpi pe cand efectua lucrari de
reparatii la barajul de la Sadu.
Dupa infiintare, Gradinii

pisica salbatica, o lupoaica donata de Obert von Spiess din partea
Regelui, un lup donat de Asociatia "Soimii", un vultur, un cerb carpatin
donat de vanatorii din Talmacel, mistreti, etc. In 1930 a fost donat

About the zoo
The Zoological Garden in Sibiu
is the first one in the country, opened in 1929 by the Electrical

after having found some foxes while working to repair the dam in a
village near Sibiu.

Zoo Garden in Sibiu received as donations several animals and birds – a
wild cat, a she-wolf donated by Obert von Spiess on behalf of the king,
a wolf donated by "Soimii" Association, an eagle, a Carpathian stag
donated by the hunters in Talmacel, a wild boar and other animals.

animals and birds belonging to 47 different species: monkeys, bears,
white wolves, Carpathian wolves, foxes, tigers, lions, jaguars, puma,
