wildlife park

The as-yet-unsexed and unnamed animal was born to parents Raphael and Bijou at Cotswold Wildlife Park.

The victim, a 35-year-old man, worked at the Presidential Library Wildlife Park, owned by former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, in Abeokuta, capital of Ogun state.

The wildlife park said it had conducted a review and put new steps in place to stop further escapes.

The authorities said the site, on the outskirts of Livingstone town, near a national wildlife park, had been set up without permission - alleging the children were “caged” in unsanitary and dangerous conditions.

As the former conservation manager for Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium and Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, my purpose — and passion — always has been connecting people with nature.
