A zoo linked with the museum was also established, replacing the royal menagerie at Versailles. Until then, people had seen animals in traveling shows, where they were exhibited as curiosities. Traveling menageries were soon banned in Paris, ensuring a steady stream of visitors to the new zoo. The eminent naturalists Comte de Lacepede (1756-1825), Cuvier and Geoffroy compiled a catalog of the animals in the zoo in 1801. Nicolas Marechal, the museum's painter, documented the animals of the new zoo in watercolor paintings on vellum.
