CHAPTER XI 



JARDIN ZOOLOGIQUE, LIEGE : DIRECTOR, M. HKNRARD 



This Garden belongs to the Royal Society of Acclimata- 

 tion and Horticulture of Liege. 



On entering (I saw nobody to pay), I found a number 

 of poultry pens, the inmates being for sale. A large 

 number of ducks and geese are also bred and sold, and 

 two cages contained fox-terrier dogs for sale. There 

 was a bear pit, which appeared to be empty, and a 

 monkey-cage only half full ; but look as I would all 

 over the Garden, I could find no other animals. 



The Garden is very long and very narrow, and has 

 several large duck-ponds, many down the middle con- 

 taining a few ducks and geese. There is a children's 

 playground with swings of various kinds, but this 

 Garden can scarcely be called a zoological garden. 

 There is a school of horticulture, a restaurant, and a 

 band-stand.
