The city’s oldest tourist attraction, Zoo Atlanta actually started by accident. In 1889, a traveling circus went bankrupt and sold its animals to a local businessman, who decided to open a zoo in Grant Park to house his new pets.

Jr. the silverback gorilla and Lun Lun the giant panda, who gave birth to twins in 2016.
