    According to the internet, there are no zoos in the Solomon Islands. Tetepare Island is listed as a protected area, but there are no zoos.

    As far as I'm aware, there are no zoos in the Solomons.

    It's quite a shame really, it's a place in need of a good zoo.

    How about other conservation facilities?

    Are there any conservation groups (local or otherwise) active there?
