Copenhagen Zoo - Chimp enclosure
17-01-2008
The Ape House in Copenhagen Zoo is spilt in three indoor exhibits, and used to house both chimpanzees and gorillas. The gorillas have now moved to the best gorilla exhibit I have ever seen, in Givskud Zoo (also Denmark). This picture is the old gorilla exhibit, and the chimps now have all three exhibits. The chimps (sadly) have no outdoor enclosure, but the indoor enclosures will soon be rebuilt, to provide a better habitat for the chimps. What one must remember, is that these chimps are former laboratory chimps, and have never know space like this before.
Copenhagen Zoo co-ordinates the EEP for chimpanzees and West-African chimpanzees.
