Reconsider the reopening of zoos

Petition Details

Consider the reopening of zoos who have been told that they are not allowed to open due to the Covid-19 pandemic, when other outdoor trusts and spaces have been allowed to re open their doors to the public. We are at risk of losing our zoos, which are important for education and enjoyment

Additional Information

Many zoos have got social distancing plans in place to reopen, the general public are ready to get outside again, and if zoos are able to adhere to social distancing then doors need reopening to be able to fund the work they do.
