Let's go to the zoo!

Bright and early the next morning Tiffi meets up with Jenny and Yeti for breakfast. While they are waiting for their food Yeti takes out a map of the zoo that he found online.

The girls get very excited. Once they finish breakfast the three of them head on over to the zoo. Yeti pays the entrance admission and he opens the map to see where they’d like to go first.

“Let’s just walk around to look at everything,” says Tiffi. “I see a pamphlet over there. Let’s see what it says.”

‘The zoo contains a variety of species from across the globe, including hippopotamuses, orangutans, flamingoes, parrots, alligators, boa constrictors, turtles and many more. The zoo was for a long time famous for its star resident, ‘Snowflake’, who was the only known albino gorilla in captivity. He resided in the zoo from 1966 until he passed away in 2003. The museum was also home to the first Dolphinarium in Europe which opened in 1960.

The museum has been the focus of criticism from animal rights activists and other groups concerned with the animals’ well-being following concerns that many of the enclosures were too small and that the zoo was generally in need of refurbishment. Plans for the zoos renewal were drafted in 2008 but have since been indefinitely shelved following the financial crisis which began in that year. In addition to the many exotic residents of the zoo, it is also home to many native and local species, some of which are endangered on at risk of extinction.’ (Source)
