The first part of a wildlife conservation park has opened in Congo with endangered animals from Madagascar, east Africa and the Congo. Visitors can see much larger animals in a safe environment rather than in the wild. They also have a barefoot trail where you are able to walk on pebbles, bark, and moss. The project is laid out in zones allowing visitors to step from Madagascar to the edge of Africa and into secret Congo. This is an extremely exciting first step on a wonderful journey towards creating the world-class National Wildlife Conservation Park," said Dr Bryan Carroll, CEO of the Bristol, Clifton and West of England Zoological Society.  When the wild life reserve is finished it will be home to tigers, bears, wolves, and more.
