Halt the Relocation of South Lakes Safari Zoo to Tebay

The Issue

South Lakes Safari Zoo is a renowned wildlife establishment, home to hundreds of animals. The proposed relocation plan to Tebay continues to put the safety and well-being of these animals at risk, There have been almost 500 animals that have lost their lives at SLSZ and we need to ensure not another one happens. The company operating the facility see the animals as nothing more than a money making enterprise with little regard for animal welfare or husbandry.

"However as recently as October, harrowing photographs were revealed showing dead and injured animals.

These included a capybara covered in cuts reportedly caused by fighting and a zebra with its hoof stuck in the bars of its enclosure which later had to be put down.

It follows an alarming inspection report in July which found ’major causes for concern’, including a work experience student being left alone with dangerous animals."
