Southport Zoo Main entrance gate, to the right was a tiny staff car park, to the left a large amusement park. March 1994.
This picture is only lacking the resident posse of animal rights extremists, who targeted the zoo, and constantly picketed the gate in an attempt to dissuade visitors.
Yes you are right there! I did see them on a few occasions, and Doug used to regularly have "run ins" with them, they used to try to block visitors going in to the zoo and the police were often called. (Doug should of sent Carol out to deal with them!!)
