Rejected petition Re open Whipsnade ZSL Zoo now!

Re open Whipsnade and London ZSL Zoo’s.
Whipsnade does amazing work with breeding animals that could become extinct.
There work with animal and marine conservation is so important to everyone.
If you re open they can use entrance fee’s to stay open, rather than funding from the Government.

More details

Zoo’s must be allowed to re open.
School’s are opening, shops are opening and there’s more people in an enclosed area in a shop than they would be in an open air Zoo!
Shops open for non essential goods on 15th June, so please for the animals sake all our sakes, PLEASE RE OPEN OUR ZOO’S.
