"The Little Zoo in the Gardens" booklet. Henry Ben Jahn was the benefactor behind the establishment of the Ballarat Zoological Gardens. He died 28 December, 1911 and the zoo was opened on 17 April, 1917 and closed 1957. In 1995 the residue of Henry Ben Jahn's estate was used to help fund the re-establishment of a wetlands in the North Gardens Reserve, now known as the North Gardens Wetlands.
Significance
"The Little Zoo" at the Northern end of the Ballarat Botanical Gardens was an example of how the acclimatisation societies across the British Empire tried to establish familiar animals into new environments.
