The Ivy Zoos...?

[john regan]

Has anyone ever heard of this grouping of European zoos? See recent blog spot my site The “What Could Zoos Be…?” Forum.

It sounds like it is refering to a group generally...

 

[john regan]

Yes, I always understood it to be a loose grouping. But it was also someone's idea, and I wondwr who?

If your including American zoos, i.e. Bronx, Chicago that could become a long list...

Yes, and I would add Dublin, Edinburgh, ARTIS

The original idea was just European zoos though, and my interest was sparked as I suspect there could be some funding from the European Commission to look at common problems and opportunities
