Safety Tops Zoo Agenda

The issues of safety and security have been listed at the top of Shanghai Wild Animal Park's New Year plan, the Oriental Morning Post reported yesterday.

Like other wild animal parks around the world, the Shanghai facility offers visitors a ride through bush and grassland populated by lions, tigers, leopards and other animals.

The 2005 agenda of the Park regulates that specific attendants will take charge of animal-feeding whilst visitors are required to do nothing more than sightsee, staying inside the buses from now on.

Another 11 newly re-structured tourist cars, costing 4 million yuan (US$483,000), will be put into use in 2005, replacing the old ones, revealed Park general manager Gu Huikang.

Besides this, the living area of tigers and leopards will have a minor relocation, and the Park will welcome several new animals including hippo, elephant, flamingo and etc.
