About this audio guide
This guide to Zoo Bratislava, set in the city's wooded Mill Valley, goes back to a young zoo that opened in 1960 with help from volunteers and students, and to the shy wild cat its keepers chose to work with. It asks what it takes to persuade one of Europe's most solitary predators to raise a family in human care, and follows a pair of zoo-born cats into the Slovak mountains. Best heard near the lynx enclosure, scanning the shade.
