Notes

"The Tower Menagerie" refers to a historical menagerie housed in the Tower of London during the 18th and early 19th centuries. Established by King Henry III in the early 13th century, the menagerie housed a collection of exotic animals, including lions, tigers, elephants, and various birds. It became a symbol of royal prestige and power. Over the years, the menagerie faced challenges such as inadequate living conditions for the animals and financial constraints. Eventually, it closed in the mid-19th century, and the remaining animals were transferred to the London Zoo. The Tower Menagerie represents a fascinating chapter in the history of animal collections and royal fascination with exotic creatures.
