hey guys, i have some awesome news, the zoo will receive a great development that will take 5 years to be completed, and they should invest 300 millions reais in this, the development has plans to join the zoo, safari park and the botanical garden into one, joining all these, they will make an excellent place to be considered one of the best zoos in the world, and will get a name called biosfera park, also this is gonna be the greatest development from the last 40 years of the zoo's history, the main objective is turn the zoo into a place of preservation, education and the conservation of wildlife, the guests will be able to see animals that will represent all the biomes of the world, there will be 4 biomes: Americas, Africa, Eurasia and Oceania. Also, and brazil will be represented with 6 brazilian biomes, being them: Amazon, Cerrado, Atlantic Forest, Caatinga, Pantanal And Pampas.
One of the biggest changes are developing new enclosures to the animals from where they live currently and moving them to large areas where they can behave like they would in the wild, and they will camouflage the apparent barriers of metal fences using materials from nature, such as bushes and logs, in addition to expanding spaces for some animals, changing others places and, in some cases, grouping them as they are found in their habitat by biome, they will also include a platform suspended at a height of 6 meters and almost 2 kilometers to access the entrance, a stretch that visitors can travel on foot to enjoy the view or with a kind of electric train.

once the biomes's divison is completed until 2025, the biologists will be able to add more different animals together as they live in the wild, and the new entrance will be in the middle of the complex so the guests can acess the whole park which they bought tickets. and if the guests want to visit the safari, they no longer will use their own cars, instead they will use a safari's car with a guide driving it. and the axolotls will get a new enclosure.

agree with you, i hope the zoo can be able to bring back species that were formerly kept like gorillas, cheetahs, american black bears, snow leopards, african leopards, gray wolves, lar gibbons, malayan tapirs, grizzlies, kangaroos, gharials, indian rhinos, wisents, kudus and vultures.
 
hey guys, i've got some great news, the zoo will receive the snowy owl, yes, the iconic owl from harry potter, i think the zoo will be the only brazilian zoo to keep them, just like the animalia park is the only brazilian instituition that keeps indian rhinos, i don't know there are other zoos in brazil that keep this owl, but i believe this will an exclusivity in brazil. And it will be displayed in the new exhibit called woodlands's world of the owls.
 
i have a theory that this new attraction including the one who houses axolotls, is part of the plan of the biosfera park.
 
hey guys, it's being a long time, i have some breaking news, the zoo has receive 4 magellanic penguins from an aquarium in balneario, the zoo had no penguins since 2009(which in the news are saying after 15 years ago)
