It has been four months since Bristol Zoological Society closed the doors to its Clifton attraction for the final time - with bosses now focusing on The Wild Place Project on the outskirts of the city.
The closure brought an end to more than 160 years of visitors coming to the site to see animals sourced from all over the world. Back when it started, the zoo featured animals which had been brought by affluent families to the UK on ships.
But over the years, some wildlife like elephants and polar bears were judged to be unsuitable for the zoo due to its size. And in later years, the zoo concentrated more on protecting rare breeds, and educating the public.
Here we look back at some of the animals which once called the zoo their home:

2. Okapis
In early 1960s, the zoo became the first in the UK to home Okapi. In 2009 a calf was born thanks to the zoo’s breading programme. | Bristol Archives

3. Jaguars
