answer to the previous quiz:
The Tisch Children’s Zoo is within the Central Park Zoo at 64th Street and Fifth Avenue. Entrance to the Children’s Zoo is included in the Central Park Zoo admission price. Home to potbellied pigs, sheep, goats and plenty of opportunities for young visitors to crawl, jump climb, and pretend, the Children’s Zoo brings out the child in us. It is also home to the only cow in Manhattan. Congratulations to Marisa Lohse and Catarina Novelli Pigatto for answering correctly.
