Lycksele Zoo is a zoological garden located in the town of Lycksele in Northern Sweden.
The zoo was founded by Holger Lithner in 1959 and displays 25 species of Scandinavian animals.
In November 2014, the zoo was criticized because a lynx managed to escape from the zoo.[1][2] It also drew attention in December 2014 after a tourist train driver was discovered to be under the influence of alcohol while driving passengers.[3]
