The Łódź Zoo (Polish: Miejski Ogród Zoologiczny w Łodzi) is a zoological garden in the city of Łódź, Łódź Voivodeship in Poland.
Built over nearly four years on 7.5 hectares, the complex is the largest of its kind in Europe. Its elephant house keeps four Asian elephants, Alexander, Taru, Kyan and Barnaba, and pavilions wrap around a 26 metre underwater tunnel holding more than 1,300 fish, the longest such tunnel in Poland. The main building alone holds more than 35 species, among them Sumatran orangutans, false gharials, sun bears, Palawan porcupines and bowmouth guitarfish, several found at no other zoo in Poland. Orientarium sits inside the wider Łódź Zoo, founded in 1938 and now home to 554 species on 16.64 hectares in the Polesie district, including endangered Asiatic lions.
