ventured to Johannesburg Zoo in South Africa- one of the larger zoos
in South Africa. My task there was refined from my visit to Skånes
Djurpark, but even so- accruing the amount information I wanted at a
big zoo in a big city was daunting.
Thus, at Johannesburg Zoo, I again refined my project,
tailoring it so that I could glean the information that I required
from a big zoo within such a short amount of time (two weeks).
