A quiet day at the Jungle Zoo

On Saturday 21st August we visited the Jungle Zoo, exposed as a hell-hole for animals in undercover investigations in 2007 and 2010. Over three hours on a sunny Saturday in August, fewer than ten people went in. A number of people intending to go were persuaded not to, but many people had already heard of or witnessed the poor conditions inside and vowed not to return.

The “Concrete Jungle” is clearly struggling, so it’s more important than ever to apply pressure and speed up its closure. If you’d like to help the campaign, please write to North East Lincolnshire Council with your complaints, or email us to find out about upcoming demonstrations.

Welcome

Welcome to the new site for the campaign to close down Cleethorpes’ Jungle Zoo. No zoo can provide a “natural” environment for animals but the Jungle Zoo is especially inadequate, and has been exposed in a number of damning investigations as an animal welfare disaster.

This site will be used to post new and existing information about the conditions in the zoo, as well as news on the ongoing campaign to close it down and rehome the animals currently locked inside. See a report of a demo earlier in the year here, from Sheffield Animal Friends.

Feel free to get in touch if you have any information to share about the Jungle Zoo, or if you’d like to join the campaign. Whether you live in Cleethorpes or not, there are opportunities to help bring about the closure of this prison for animals, and put an end to the use of animals in entertainment.
