Just to play Devil’s advocate, the 3 species of snake/4 lizard are just the ones on the planning application. There are a handful of ‘tbd’ spots,...
I absolutely agree there is a place for private keepers alongside zoos. 100%. But I don’t think that realistically private primate keepers are...
I assume by 15 to 20 exhibit areas they would mean different houses. So one of the areas would be a spider house with a dozen or so species. Then...
