Guest guest Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 http://www.prowildlife.de/de/Presse/Archiv_2005/PM-Gorillas-China_2005/pm-gorill\ as-china_2005.html This is " auf Deutsch " - in German - but basically it refers to the move of some gorillas from German zoos to Shanghai in China as a " state gift " from the government of the Netherlands to China ...I've also heard it's a routine transfer from one EEP zoo to another and not a state gift. If anyone out there cares to post a rough English translation, thanks in advance. My german ain't what it used to be, but the gist, I think, is ProWildlife opposes the transfer, based on Shanghai's long history of alleged animal abuse, etc. I have photos of the gorilla enclosure there in 2002, but have heard they have made changes, including a new chimp facility, ok'd by Jane Goodall ... Anyone out there know more about this? Thanks! Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
