Prague Zoo begins 76th season

Prague Zoo has just begun its 76th season. Director Petr Fejk presented new hyena and crocodile expositions on Sunday and said there were plans to build a new enclosure for elephants and rhinos. Mr Fejk said 1,000 animals had been born in the zoo last year and he hoped there would be a similar "boom" in 2007.
