I heard that on the radio whilst driving home this evening Doogs but they didn't really go into it so it was good to read the article and it makes perfect sense to me. Whipsnade dont do a zoofari but lots of animals are roaming in the open, safe enclosures obviously, so it will be interesting to see if they follow suit. I wont wear an animal jumper or print when I go in October just incase though.
It will be interesting to how well this is published for the public and how many comply. I hope everyone has respect for the animals.
Thanks for the link Doogs.

Read this in the paper today Doogs. As LW says it does make common sense, a lot of prey animals are born with the instinct to react to certain things, and markings like Leopard prints is proberbly one of them
