Is that sentence about Ziggy really neutral? I think someone should change it. 12.73.229.250 06:40, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

NM - I guess it's technically true. I added a litle bit of information, though. 147.126.95.148 21:09, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Brookfield Zoo. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

Costa Rican white tailed deer

KayD19 (talk) 23:24, 22 April 2016 (UTC)When I was reviewing this article I noticed that the Costa Rican white tailed deer doesn't have an actual article. I think it should just be changed to White tailed deer because when you do some research on white tailed deers it says one of the places they originate from Central America. Costa Rica is in Central America so I think it would be a good idea to change it unless anyone is opposed to that? ^[1][reply]

Stop it with the elephants

Look, lots of people in the zoo world have heard the rumor about Brookfield possibly getting elephants again. It's a rumor. That's it. Until the zoo itself or another reputable source comes out and says that Brookfield is building a new elephant house, please stop editing in unfounded claims of imminent incoming elephants.

Attendance

I might have missed it, but I didn't see any attendance figures. In 2010, about 2.3 million people visited the zoo (https://www.rblandmark.com/2011/06/28/cool-weather-rain-means-fewer-visitors-to-brookfield-zoo/). Maybe someone can find more extensive or more recent figures and add them to the article. 79.134.37.83 (talk) 02:37, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done The article does appear to now have attendance numbers. Added this citation as an additional reference. Adam MLIS (talk) 01:38, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
