Notability not established for this sublist. There are only 6 or so zoos / wildlife centres / similar with their own animal list on Wikipedia, and I'll prod the other ones (unless they have some real claim to notability as a list.) This one survived a prod in 2006, but I see no reason why the list of animals at a zoo would be a notable subject in most cases. Fram ( talk) 09:15, 16 October 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete This is cruftacular to the extreme. Is it an WP:ADVERT for the zoo in question? The opening line can belong in the main article - there is no need for this. Although on checking the article, it contradicts this total... Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 14:18, 16 October 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I can't conceive of any reason why the list of animals at this zoo, or likely any zoo, would have independent notability. Squeamish Ossifrage ( talk) 17:18, 16 October 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete as failing WP:LISTN. All zoos have animals, animals in zoos can and do change, and, in my view, lists of these sorts are undue trivia not worth even worth including in zoo articles (no merge or redirect warranted) let alone stand-alone lists. --Animalparty!

  • Snow delete. The only possible justification for a list like this is if the zoo had unique species or famous named animals. No Ling-Ling and Hsing-Hsing or Yetis here. Clarityfiend ( talk) 21:44, 16 October 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Seriously? Pure WP:LISTCRUFT. Onel5969 TT me 02:41, 24 October 2015 (UTC) reply
