1203                <p>Hamilton Zoo at Te Kaaroro Nature Precinct, found nestled just moments from Kirikiriroa's city centre, offers a unique gateway to an unforgettable wildlife adventure. As the North Island's largest zoo, our 25-hectare haven is home to more than 450 exotic and native creatures, from majestic tigers and inquisitive chimpanzees to colourful parrots and ancient reptiles. There are few other places in the world you can experience exotic animals and native flora and fauna in such a close urban setting.&nbsp;</p>
1204<p>Hamilton Zoo is committed to the conservation of animals and the environment by participating in various conservation and research projects, as well as contributions to breeding programmes for endangered species. The Hamilton Zoo Conservation Fund was established to accumulate and distribute funds raised from various sources including specified contributions from admission ticket and animal encounter sales, public donations, proceeds from special conservation events or items in the Zoo Gift Shop.</p>

1348                <p>Hamilton Zoo started its life as Hilldale Game Farm in 1969 under the ownership of Murray and Gloria Powell. Initially, the farm focused on raising game birds for the Acclimatisation Society, along with a small collection of exotic mammals and birds for public viewing.</p>
1349<p>In 1976, the Hamilton City Council purchased the 14-hectare site, buildings, and animal stock, and appointed a Zoological Trust to manage the zoo. When the zoo faced a potential closure, a public petition in April 1984 prompted the council to keep the zoo operational. Subsequently, the Department of Recreation and Welfare took over the management of Hilldale.</p>
1350<p>Recognizing the need for a clear vision for the zoo's future, a concept plan was developed. This led to the opening of the Zoo Education Centre in 1987, and the upgrade of zoo facilities, including new exhibits, paved paths, boardwalks, and extensive planting.&nbsp;</p>
