Re: Conifer @ zoo?
Always hard to Id just from a few leaves. I spotted the trunk in the background which gives more clues.
With foliage and trunk I'd say one of the redwoods too.
There's 2 North American redwoods - Sequoia sempervirens - Coast redwood/ California redwood and Sequoiadendron giganteum - giant redwood
Pretty sure that flat foliage is Sequoia sempivirons.
Up in the pine plantation near here there's a plantation of these now known as the 'magic forest'. Probably not quite as old as the zoo tree but still very impressive trunks, especially when there's a couple of hundred close together.
