I think Chester has past the million but its no long news now when they do so nothing was made of it!!!

So Chester might not achieve last year's visitor total but it will not be a disastrous season . Zoo days will no doubt boost visitors and there is the Frost Fair to come .

Dublin Zoo reported a record number of visitors last year.

The zoo, which celebrated the new year with the birth of a baby giraffe on January 4th, attracted 931,866 visitors in 2008, 26,000 more than in 2007 which was in itself a record year. The zoo believes a baby boom last year helped it to record figures.

Good to see things looking so much better for London and Dublin zoos , it was not that long ago that both were in very serious trouble .
