Yes I know the zoo there. If you had read my post in context (but being a teenager of the 2000's I'm guessing your reading comprehension is quite low), I was inquiring as to the non-zoo actual wildlife that lives in the park. From your post I am gathering that deer are the only wildlife in Central Park (which I don't believe due to its size and the plentiful food sources -think garbage cans) in the area. Could someone with an actual education inform me as to the wildlife in Central Park? No foxes? Other? Also, I believe there is an Equine Center in the park. Correct? Thanks.
Really? And who are you? You just insult people for being young?
I was a teenager in this decade, and I'm sure my reading comprehension was at or above yours when I was 17 and you were out of college...
Dont act like youre such a know it all- you were trying to tell me Frederick Law Olmsted designed Central Park in response to my post on how Central Park is based on New England town commons and especially Boston Public Gardens (which he designed, and is why I brought it up).
Stop acting like a know-it-all unless you actually do.

Don't worry about it. Only idiots know everything.
Anyway, I obviously have a bias for parks like Boston Common and the Public Gardens. When talking about "city parks" I have a preference for parks that are actually in cities. Things like Central Park, Potomac Parks in Washington DC, Grant/Milliennium Park in Chicago, Golden Gate Park, and even Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta are what I would consider great "city parks". They're located in the city, and provide a beautiful green oasis in what otherwise would be considered to be a fully-urban area.
I don't thnik of places like White Rock Lake in Dallas as a "city park" because it's clearly in a suburban area.
I know not everyone will agree with me, but I like to think of urban parks whenever talking about "city parks"...not just a park that happens to be within the borders of a huge city.

I would have to say that of the cities in the Rocky Mountain States, also known as the Intermountain West, that Boise has some of if not the nicest parklands of the major cities in the Rockies.
I have to include Milwaukee County in Wisconsin.They have the Lake Michigan shore line , flowers , birds , trees , etc. Also they have many many, inland parks as well !
Yes, I have not seen it but I have read Milwaukee County is supposed to have a pretty decent park system.
