If you listen to this podcast, you've probably at some point been to the Sedgwick County Zoo. But do you know the story of the Riverside Zoo that eventually became the zoo we know and love today?

David's cousin-in-law, Stephen, sat down in the Collective Basement and took us through a journey of the original Wichita zoo and the wacky things that happened back in the early 1900s. We might have to make a Wichita Podcast sponsored movie of this story because it is hilarious and unbelievable - and yet all so true.

So join us as we look at the early zoo that shaped the incredible zoo we are all lucky to have in our very own backyard. And while you're at it, go support the Sedgwick County Zoo - let them know the Wichita Podcast sent you. Even though you'll get nothing.
