Colchester Zoo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Colchester Zoo in Essex, England claims on its website to have some of the best cat and primate collections in Europe. The zoo had 547,495 visitors in 2003 (boosted by the birth of its first baby elephant) and 464,684 in 2004.
Colchester Zoo is supported by a charitable organisation called Action for the Wild. The charity is dedicated to assisting conservation projects at both local and international levels through the provision of both financial and technical assistance.
