People flock to Dusit Zoo on long weekend

 

 

The long weekend saw particularly large numbers of people flocking to Dusit Zoo in the heart of Bangkok to have a last glimpse of one of the city’s most memorable landmarks before its permanent closure at the end of this month.

 

Zoological Park Organisation of Thailand officials said the flow of people into the Dusit Zoo began on Aug 11 and the number went up on Aug 12, the Mother’s Day.

 

More people continued to arrive at the zoo on Monday, the last day of the long weekend. Traffic jams occurred in front of the zoo’s entrance gates.

To see sheep perhaps?

I remember my Thai wife upon seeing some sheep in the UK, commented that she had only ever seen one sheep before, and that was in a Thai zoo.

There are many sheep parks in Thailand, where you can walk among the sheep and feed them.

(talking about real sheep, not people acting like sheep by having no opinion and just goose stepping behind their leader).

I thought this zoo was closing, soon.

There's a closing down sale now on.

Rhino horn, elephant tusks, tiger dick - I heard that's been reserved already by some big-shot.

Anything that will fetch more than the transport cost, get your bid in now.
