Maidstone, Zoo Park c.1955

Is there anyone that worked at the zoo or knows anyone that did as I believe my mum worked there in about the 50's??? any photo's would be great to see Michelle

I remember the train that ran by the side of the approach drive when I visited the zoo as a young child with my parents. I wanted to go on it, but my parents made me walk. I was just learning to read and asked my Mum what a 'dangeroo' was. On the way out, I felt unaccountably embarrassed because my father helped a man who couldn't walk well to get back onto his coach. I remember that my mother told me that the tiger (or lion I can't remember which), was eyeing me up for a meal.
