The Salisbury Zoo, located in Salisbury, Maryland, was officially born in 1954 when some animals were placed on permanent exhibition in the City Park. The Zoo's present form resulted from improvements made in the 1970's. The Zoo now provides naturalistic enclosures for species native to North, Central and South America and is Association of Zoos & Aquariums accredited. The Zoo's policy is maintained by the Salisbury Zoo Commission, Inc. whose nine members are appointed by the City Council.
