The GOB denounces the situation
of the Safari-Zoo of Sa Coma (12/9/2000)
Members of the GOB visited last week the installations
of the Safari-Zoo Mentz, 5 km along the road that joins Portocristo
and Son Servera, and detected a series of very worrying irregularities
that have provoked the request to the Balearic Department of Agriculture,
the entity that has the control of zoos in the Balearics, to close
it.
According to the GOB, the Safari-Zoo Mentz
has presented a really lamentable situation for several years,
with installations that are alarmingly deficient, affecting both
the conditions of captivity of the animals and the quality and
safety of the visitors.
