New enclosure for the Chimp - Badoca Safari Park

New enclosure for the Chimp - Badoca Safari Park, Feb 2009

this looks really nice! how many chimps do they have?

Hi,

Currently they have 4 Chimps (1.3), that arrived from another park in Portugal.

This is a brand new enclosure (should get greener with time).

It looks like a great exhibit, could maybe use more male chimps though.
And is that fence all that's containing them? I know it's electrified and the wire looks thick, but still I find it a bit risky holding great apes in with just hotwire.

Oh, no!

There's a big moat of water beside the electric fence. And on the other side of the water (on the public side), there's another electric fence.

I will try and get another pic, where you can see the water all over

Ah right, in which case it's good that there's a big effort to keep them away from the water

Looks like a nice exhibit!

@CindelP, what subspecies?
