    This kind of cooperation is definitely the way forward. I'm sure you're all aware of the great work done by Peel zoo (here in Western Australia) to improve Bali zoo.

    Medan Zoo has received investment from well-known Indonesian celebrity Raffi Ahmad, who actually planned to build his own zoo named "RANS Carnaval City Zoo".

    Bobby Nasution & Raffi Ahmad Akan Sulap Medan Zoo Jadi Lokasi Wisata Terbaik

    This is a great news since this could improved the animal welfare and conservation effort of the zoo, considering that this is one of those Indonesian zoos (You know what I'm talking about).

    After more reading, it safe to assume that most of the investment aren't going to go there...

    Has anyone seen the current state of this zoo? Its getting saddening to see the lack of proper management led to tons of animals starve to death.

    Im honestly wondering if Nasution is gonna do anything about this.

    Other than the fact that several tigers has passed away and the remaining neglected, I heard (And already reported here) they received several investments back atleast a few years ago. I wonder what will came from it, but I doubt it would benefit the tigers and the other species in the zoo.
