Leon Lion, Ústí Nad Labem Zoological Gardens, Czech Republic

After Lumpe's death in 1936, the park was kept up, largely thanks to the senior gardener and other staff. After World War II, the Czech Republic took over the park and turned it into a zoo. The new cages and paddocks were installed, and the area was gradually enlarged to its current 26 hectares (64 acres).
In the 1970s, the zoo started updating their exhibits, with glass replacing bars and more spacious paddocks for the animals.
