Chester Zoo Photographs
Just added to the Gallery section of this web site is an album of Photographs of Chester Zoo. The collection is meant to portray something of the experience that is Chester Zoo as well as showing some of the animals and vegetation that is on display.
As ever there is a debate about the morality of zoos but Chester is making an increasingly succesful effort to make the living conditions as comodious and pleasurable as possible. The Zoo has also greatly improved the educational experience for the visitor and there are a host of information points and educational activities for the young to get involved.
As a visitor experience Chester Zoo is rated amongst the top 14 Zoos in the world. It's certainly an all day experience, there is so much to see. The modern Zoo has to reconsile the needs of it's visitors, who after all are it's livelyhood, and the needs of conservation and animal welfare. Becasue of this it is sometimes necessary to visit some of the enclosures more than once before you actually get to see anything.
For a larger image click on the thumbnails and for more picture look at the Chester Zoo Photograph gallery.
