Germany not in list
Is there a specific reason why the Germany zoo list is separate? I was searching for that and overlooked it at first.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.43.212.106 (talk) 13:15, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Who Knew?
Only 5 Canadian provinces have zoos... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Marshmello (talk • contribs) 21:44, 1 February 2007 (UTC).


 * No, All the provinces have tons of zoos. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.53.52.32 (talk) 03:01, 10 March 2007 (UTC).

flag icons
Does anyone really, really like the flag icons? If not, I suggest removing them. They make the page load very slowly, add little value, and mess up section linkage. For example List of zoos intuitively worked formerly, but must now be List of zoos. —EncMstr (talk) 21:29, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Since no one said a thing, they're now removed. That was an incredible challenging transformation, except for a few stretches.  I didn't check to see if the countries and state section headers were wikilinked before converted to flags, but they are now.  I think I caught all the unique cases such as Victoria (Australia), but could have made a few point to the wrong article.  —EncMstr (talk) 21:31, 6 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I really really liked the flags, they were so colourful!Johnsp1 (talk) 18:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Order of countries
Is there a reason why countries are separated into multiple regions rather than just being listed alphabetically? It seems to me that a straight alphabetical list is much easier to find things in, as opposed to (for instance), finding Fiji under a section titled "Australia/Oceania" and thus under "A" rather than "F" or even "O". Donlammers (talk) 11:13, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Being European with lots of countries nearby I find the current order very helpful. --77.181.233.40 (talk) 20:02, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Expanding Intro
Per Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists, I have taken a first stab at a definition of what goes in this list, and added it to the intro. If I don't hear objections, I will take this same definition to the "List of zoos in..." articles, then eventually add an equivalent definition to the lists of aquaria and dolphinariums.

Largest zoo
Hi, I was looking for largest zoo in the world (I am still looking) and I think this list could be improved by adding some informations like the date of creation, the size of the zoo, the number of animals, etc. Lionel Allorge (talk) 11:45, 8 May 2010 (UTC)


 * First, how do you define "largest?" Most area? Most animals? Most species? Most conservation programs? I don't think anyone would mind some additional information in this list. However, unless you are volunteering, it's unlikely to happen in the near future. Donlammers (talk) 14:00, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
