i suppose its ok if you have children but if you dont i suppose you might look a bit sucspicous if you know what i mean

No tigerlemurguy, what do you mean?

Also while the mongoose might cope okay with loud hordes of children, I cannot see the red pandas doing well. Or otherwise they will be high up a tree out of sight.

yes defintley tetrapod! unless they are han raised ones, which is unlikely, does london currently keep red pandas?

07-09-2008

No, London sent their Red Pandas to Whipsnade a few years back.

I am already afraid, considering how bad is London in making "shows". They put lots of effort and produce something ugly, ordinary and dull.

Good idea would be to shut London zoo designer together with the tigers, and employ scriptwriter of BBC natural history unit.


Anybody told them, that children don't like cute animals? Its mature women who are fascinated by them. For boys, a couple of cobras, crocodiles and predators would go down well. For girls: ponies, goats and cute medium-sized ungulates.

thats a bit of a biased opinion my brother loves little cute animals and hes 10!

i think london is putting a foot in the right direction here

A more detailed bird's eye view of the new plans

shame they are keeping the red barn but oh well overall looks good

The site says meerkats will be a part of the children's zoo, I wonder if they are splitting up the current group or getting something new for their current enclosure?

11-09-2008

they have already moved some to whipsnade, i wonder?

Looks as though aardvarks are making a comeback to Regents park too

Interesting link Kiang.

From the image, it seems that the root zone has 3 enclosures. I guess meerkat and aardvark will go in this section, so I wonder what will go in the other enclosure...

11-09-2008

I think there seems to be 3 outdoor enclosures and 1 indoor enclosure, i would think the aardvarks will be indoor, perhaps with an outdoor enclosure too
