A zoo just had twin elephants .... I thought my mother had said it was Toledo Zoo... but I guess she said thailand...and I misheard her. Oh Toledo Zoo had Bali Myna birds... pretty rare @the time... Pandas I've seen pandas in Toledo and San Diego zoo both. And I've seen the Wyoming toads. Had Golden lion tameron @ detroit zoo in the 80's ...they were super rare

The rarest Animal that I have ever seen would definitely be the Sumatran Rhino at my hometown zoo in Cincinnati. After the death of the other one, I guess the zoo felt that the remaining one would be better off in his natural habitat. Yes, I miss Harapan, but it was probably all for the best.

The proboscis monkeys, as well as Inuka the Polar Bear (Rest in Peace, Inuka) are like the rarest zoo animals I have ever seen, since I've only been to the Singapore Zoo and nowhere else. I've known Inuka all my life whenever I go to the zoo on every visit, and when I realize he is dying in 2018, I paid him one visit to see him one last time. The proboscis monkeys are a different story. So far Singapore has like the only successful breeding population of Proboscis Monkeys there, and unless other zoos allow them in Singapore Zoo may be the only place to see proboscis monkeys in the flesh.

I don’t know if it’s necessarily the rarest animal I’ve seen, but the Smithsonian zoo houses Cayman blue iguanas, which are endemic to one tiny island in the Caribbean. I actually went to Grand Cayman once and saw a couple wild ones. In 2006 there were estimated to be only 15 of the lizards on the island, but thanks to captive breeding and reintroduction their numbers have recovered significantly, but they are still endangered.
