Update from Teuk Chhou Zoo
Thursday, August 25, 2011 at 11:05AM Last month Wildlife Alliance was invited by His Excellency Nhim Vanda to help care for the animals at his private zoo in Kampot. Teuk Chhou Zoo needed to be completely upgraded to meet the needs of the animals living there. Immediately, new protocols were put into place regarding feeding, cleanliness, and general care. Those protocols are still in operation, and new initiatives are implemented as the need arises. For example, two boys have been taken on to collect discarded litter within the zoo – an eternal problem in Cambodia. The first month has not passed without its troubles, however animal and keeper welfare continues to improve and problems are dealt with as they arise.
