The Parque de las Leyendas is a traditional zoo in the city of Lima located in the Archaeological Complex of Maranga. The zoo predominately features flora and fauna native to Peru and is divided into the three primary climatic regions of the country – jungle, sierra highlands, and coastal. Crocodiles, snakes, toucans, coatis, parrots, jaguars, and monkeys can be found in the jungle. In the highlands animals like pumas, condors, llamas, vicunas, owls, and guanacos are featured, and the coast is represented by penguins, sea lions, turtles, cormorants, and pelicans. In 2010, a new exhibit, Felina, opened. It is home to a variety of big cats including tigers and lions.
