2016 - REMODELLING OF THE DOLPHINARIUM AND THE ZOO’S FARM, CREATION OF A WORK TEAM TO DEFINE THE NEW ZOO MODEL AND NEW MANGABEY AND PLAYGROUND FACILITIES
The visitors’ area of the dolphinarium is remodelled and the Zoo substitutes the traditional educational scheduled sessions for a facility where visitors can uninterruptedly observe the daily life of dolphins, in a manner more similar to the rest of animals in the Zoo.
The remodelling of the Zoo’s Farm is started, in order to improve its educational aspect and increase significantly the educational activities carried out in this facility, so families and children can learn while playing.
A new facility of the white-collared mangabey, a species with whom the Zoo is developing an important conservation program under the scope of the EAZA and a new playground are added. Both facilities are designed to be inclusive, so people with special needs can also make use of them.
On the beginning of 2016, the City Council of Barcelona created a work team to establish the new future model for the Zoo of Barcelona. This team is composed by 40 members, representing different political parties and the main pro-animal rights’ associations, scientists and zoology experts, representatives of the Barcelona neighbourhood association, Zoo technicians and employees’ representatives.
