Abstract (ePrints):	Znanje predšolskih otrok o živalih je precej pomanjkljivo, saj si jih zaradi napačnih predstav in pomanjkanja neposrednega stika z živimi živalmi ne predstavljajo pravilno. Živalski vrt nam omogoča neposreden stik z živalmi in ogled tistih vrst, ki si jih v naravi ne moremo ogledati in ima zato pomembno vlogo pri oblikovanju predstav in pri pridobivanju znanja o živalih. Diplomska naloga je razdeljena na teoretični in empirični del. V teoretičnem delu je opisana zgodovina živalskih vrtov, njihovih začetkih in značilnostih ter o njihovi vlogi in delovanju, posebna pozornost pa je namenjena Živalskemu vrtu Ljubljana. Cilj diplomske naloge je ugotoviti, kako obisk živalskega vrta vpliva na otroške predstave o živalih. Ta del je predstavljen v empiričnem delu. Anketiranih je bilo 42 otrok, starih od štiri do šest let, iz vrtca Ringaraja Dobrepolje. Na podlagi rezultatov raziskave je bil organiziran voden ogled v Živalskem vrtu Ljubljana, kjer so otroci spoznali tenreka in kraljevega pitona. Po obisku živalskega vrta so bili otroci ponovno anketirani in dobljeni rezultati so pokazali, da so bile otroške predstave o živalih po obisku živalskega vrta boljše, kot pred obiskom. Ta ugotovitev kaže na to, da imajo živalski vrtovi pomembno vlogo pri spoznavanju živali.
