Personally i would go for the second..Zoom Erlebniswelt. Big areas, as natural as possible..etc.
Zoo Duisburg has several species that you dont see in every zoo, but its an older zoo. They are making new areas though...this year the will open a new bear enclosure.

Thank you, my hometown zoo will be better and better since 3 years, before this he goes down every year more.

Thank you for the pics Martijn

I can't wait to get back to zoos now

Oh they are beautiful photos Martijn!! Thank you so much for sharing them
The Dwarf Crocodile is so scary!

Wonderful photos. The Artic wolf reminds me of my Trapper. He was gorgeous. I can't wait to go to the Fort Worth Zoo next month. I will take tons of photos and post them for everyone to see. I will also be going to another Wildlife ranch. I love the photos of the dolphins, camel, zebras, kudus, and so many more. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.

Thanks for all the reactions
