  • We were recently gifted tickets for a day out at @zseabanhamzoo . To be honest, whilst we were grateful to receive the tickets, we haven’t been or wanted to go to the zoo since returning from South Africa’s @krugernationalpark . After seeing the animals in their natural habitat we didn’t feel that we wanted to see the animals in enclosures. However, the fabulous bird of prey show at Banham Zoo has opened my eyes up to the projects that UK zoos are supporting around the world. Banham’s conservation programme is helping to support animals, such as the vulture that are suffering unbelievable cruelty from poachers. By nature, vultures circle a kill, however the animal has died. Poachers have recognised that the vulture is highlighting their crimes to the authorities and rangers, and were at risk of being caught. They have therefore taken to poisoning the carcasses of Rhinos, Elephants and more after they have stripped them of their tusks and horns. ☹️ This action has killed much of the vulture population, a vital part of the African eco-system. Thank you @zseabanhamzoo for such an eye-opening talk and a fantastic bird of prey flight display. (Also... I do realise this is an eagle 🦅 not a vulture!)
