The zoo was founded by Holger Lithner in 1959 and displays 25 species of Scandinavian animals.
In November 2014, the zoo was criticized because a lynx managed to escape from the zoo.[1][2] It also drew attention in December 2014 after a tourist train driver was discovered to be under the influence of alcohol while driving passengers.[3]
