As far as is known, no such institution containing equal 
facilities for the study of disease in wild animals exists in a 
zoological garden elsewhere. 
The only other new work undertaken was an extension of 
the series of owl cages on the cross-walk south of the Deer 
Park. 
Under the present plans it is hoped that before the end of 
the summer the facilities for outdoor exhibition of native 
mammals and birds may be very considerably increased. 
The thanks of the Directors are offered in return for all 
gifts which have been received. 
By order of the Board, 
ARTHUR ERWIN BROWN, 
Secretary,
