Description
The Toledo Zoo has a huge history with our family. My step-grandfather was a zoo keeper and back in those days, they let my grandmother house the infant animals. My dad and uncle grew up with lions, monkeys, tigers, and all the above. My grandmother raised a lion that was purchased by Prince Rainier of Monaco. My fathers first job at the age of 16 was running the merry-go-round and he even did it for a short stint after her retired. The same merry-go-round over forty years later. We walked to the zoo as children and begged to go into the tunnel and make echo noises. I still drive past my grandmothers house and imagine the joys and impact it had on kids and the Toledo Zoo. 🙏
