Saarbrücker Zoo: New master plan for animal -friendly attractions!

Saarbrücken, Deutschland - The Saarbrücker Zoo has presented a new master plan for modernization and further development, which is available for download on the zoo homepage. This plan was developed in cooperation with Pia Architects GmbH from Karlsruhe and aims to strengthen the zoo as an extra -curricular learning location and to secure the future viability of the zoo. Mayor Uwe Conradt emphasized the importance of the zoo as an important local recreation location, which attracts around 200,000 visitors annually.

As part of the master plan, the zoo will be converted into a Dreiklimazonzoo in the coming years, which is intended to enable authentic experience of the wildlife. The three planned climate zones include tropics (rainforest and wide level) and a moderate zone. The highlights of the concept include large enclosures, including a hectare savanna landscape, in which different animal species can live together from the same habitat as, for example zebras and elenantelopes.

focus on animal welfare and education

A central concern of the master plan is the well -being of the animals. The zoo will create natural habitats that meet the needs of the animals. Among other things, the "Rainforest Amazon" area will be created, in which animals such as lowlands and nose bears receive their own zoo section. In addition, the tapir house and the big cat system are converted into a large, partially walk -in free area, and retreats are created for the animals.

Another important aspect is the improvement of the visitor experience. In addition to the creation of barrier -free paths, the forage house is converted into an adventure restaurant and new road leaders are introduced. In addition, the zoo pursues a pedagogical approach entitled "History of Life", which should bring visitors information about species protection and climate change. This Initiative supports the role of the zoo as a place of learning, what from Dr. Sabine Dengel, the Department of Education, Culture and Youth, was emphasized.

The first draft of the master plan was presented on October 1st in a public session. The modernization of the Saarbrücken Zoo not only relies on more animal welfare, but also on comprehensive education and an intensive experience for visitors, while the focus is also on the protection of endangered animal species. This will make the zoo sustainable and remain an attractive place for both people and animals, such as Saarbruecken.de reported.
