In 1807, six large caravans belonging to Mr. Polito's menagerie were arranged in a square at the fair. Advertisements announced that visitors could view four-legged animals and exotic birds without any unpleasant odours. This collection included a beaver, kangaroos, leopards, lions, panthers, a puma, a sloth, tigers, a cassowary, emus, ostriches, pelicans, and vultures; described as the most remarkable assemblage known in the world.
