Resumo:From the earliest civilizations that Man collects and displays wild animals for entertainment, for educational purposes or just to mark their social status, but the main reason is that it helps him to find his position in relation to the rest of the world, mainly to the Nature. In today’s context, mainly focused in environment conservation and protection and therefore in a approach to the Nature matters, public’s awareness to those matters is essential for the success of institutions like zoological gardens. Landscape architecture should have an important role in the connection between these institutions and the public, giving answers to their demands, animal’s demands and today’s world demands. This word pretends to study zoological gardens’ evolution in parallel with the evolution of gardens’ design and Landscape architecture from earliest times until today, with the intent to show the close and indispensable connection between those two areas to contemporary zoological gardens’ planning and design. As result of this study is presented at the end a previous study of a project for gorillas, colobus and chimpanzees habitats in Lisbon’s Zoological Garden.
