Parts of Beijing Zoo may relocate from city centre to improve animals? living conditions and ease traffic jams | South China Morning Post
According to the online-voting conducted by a newspaper, 84.9% oppose the relocation of Beijing Zoo, even partly. The reason of so many people opposing this relocation is: all the "experts" and bureaucracies supporting this relocation don't love animals, don't care the fate of the zoo after moving it to a far suburb, don't know the education role of a cheep zoo within downtown of a country's capital, what they only care about is the high price of the zoo's land and the huge profit "generated" during the relocation process of this zoo. Moreover, they want to move this zoo to the south part of Beijing area, where the air-pollution is more serious. We don't simply oppose the relocation of zoo, but it should be conducted by animal-loving staffs and zoo experts, but not the bureaucarcy, and the relocation should be truly for the good of animals, rather than the stupid reasons such as traffic jams. I don't know why they persist the relocation plan despite the overwhelming opposition from the public since 2004.
