Czech zoos getting record visitor numbers

Zoos in the Czech Republic are currently experiencing record visitor numbers, Czech daily Mladá fronta Dnes reported on Friday. This is not only in comparison with the previous two years which were badly affected by the covid-19 pandemic, but even in comparison with the period before that. The newspaper attributes the increased interest in visiting the zoo to a greater desire to travel around the country after the restrictions of the covid era and new exhibits that are attracting more people, such as at the zoo in Zlín, which opened the largest jaguar breeding area in Europe in the spring and is currently celebrating its most successful season ever.
