These cages were once used to house zoo animals when they weren't in their lower habits during regular zoo hours. Today they have become the victims of graffiti and are strewn with trash.
Much of the old Los Angeles Zoo was built in the 1930s by the County Relief workers and the Works Progress Administration (WPA), during the Depression era. Along the primitive structures at the Zoo were once used to house to house animals, they are now deemed unsuitable for use. They are left as a reminder of times past as well as provide an opportunity for people to better understand developments in zoological sciences.
