Herbert, Judge.
A municipality which voluntarily owns and operates a zoological park primarily for fhe benefit and accommodation of those of its citizens who might be interested does so in the exercise of a proprietary function and is answerable for its tortious conduct. (Paragraph one of the syllabus of Crisafi v. City of Cleveland, 169 OhioSt. 137, 8 O.O. (2d) 125, distinguished. )
Judgments affirmed.
Taft, C. J., Zimmerman, Matthias, O’Neill, Schneider and Brown, JJ., concur.
