William Selig, motion picture pioneer, in 1913 purchased 32 acres of land next to Eastlake Park (now known as Lincoln Park) at a reported cost of $1 million. The property was turned into a zoo for the animals that he used in his films. By 1915, 700 animal species were residing at the Selig Zoo. In 1916, he sold the Edendale property to William Fox and moved his studio onto the zoo property. Even though his studio folded in 1917, he maintained the zoo at least to the mid 1930's.
