There are currently 4 zoos in New Zealand located in Auckland, Wellington, Hamilton and Christchurch. The conditions for the animals are vastly improved from the less than satisfactory ones the poor animals suffered in past times.
From the mid-19th century, acclimatisation societies brought animals into New Zealand to establish populations for hunting. As well as deer and rabbits, these so-called animal friendly organisations also imported some exotic creatures that included emus, parrots, bears, monkeys and lions. These animal collections were put on display at Hagley Park in Christchurch, Wellington Botanic Gardens and the Auckland Domain and proved to be popular attractions.
