According to the 2010 Annual Report, the Animal Census shows 6,919 animals in the Bronx Zoo. If the Census is widened to include all five of the parks under the supervision of the Wildlife Conservation Society (Bronx, Central Park, Queens and Prospect Park Zoos and the NY Aquarium), there are 12,226 animals species.
These figures include mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. They do not include invertebrates, which are notoriously hard to count. They are estimated as 177,982, of which approximately 58,000 are Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches and several thousand Leaf Cutter Ants. (12/2011)
