London Zoo - Future Developments

Future Developments

In February 2011, ZSL London Zoo launched its new Tiger S.O.S programme in which it is hoped to raise funds to help save the Sumatran Tiger. The zoo will not only use these funds in extending its three signature projects in Indonesia but build a new Tiger Conservation HQ at the zoo, plus a new exhibit where the tigers can be seen.

The new development is part of the new master plan to create better accessibility, which involves relocating the main entrance to the east, adjacent to the Broad Walk in Regent's Park.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or developments:

    “The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.”
    —Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)

    “I don’t wanna live in a city where the only cultural advantage is that you can make a right turn on a red light.
    Freedom from labor itself is not new; it once belonged among the most firmly established privileges of the few. In this instance, it seems as though scientific progress and technical developments had been only taken advantage of to achieve something about which all former ages dreamed but which none had been able to realize.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
