Thanks so much Dan!!! However my latest text isn't encouraging:
A visit to Pata "zoo" one year later: as there’s a stalemate and the owner has all play-trumps in hand as the Thai laws seems to be insufficient to close down the whole disconsolate collection of animals they are still suffering in their poor and disgraceful "accommodations".
Any renewing/renovation and/or maintenance cannot be established which is giving the premises more and more a poor looking and depressing appearance.
Some terrariums and cages are empty and several snakes are exposed as plastic.
The penguin is still showing himself alone since all his colleagues died a bit more than one year ago.
A pity!
