Lonely Planet review for Surabaya Zoo

South of the city centre, Surabaya Zoo has a good collection of lions, tigers, elephants, hippos, kangaroos and reptiles. If you’re not planning to visit Komodo, the dragons are worth a visit – 32 mini-komodos hatched here in 2009. The animals look typically nonchalant, but the park is well laid out, with large, open enclosures.

    Hey guys, You should check out whats happening at the Surabaya Zoo in Indonesia. There death rate is ridiculous and the staff are allegedly corrupt.
    I wont get in to the details as they are incredibly tragic and avoidable.

    Please take a minute to sign and share my petition.
    We can pressure the South East Asian Zoo's and Aquarium Association in to taking immediate and effective action.

    PS. I also contacted Lonely Planet about removing this link to Surabaya Zoo. The failed to reply to my email and failed to remove the link.
    So you know what, Fuck you Lonely Planet. You clearly don't care what abuses are being carried out in the locations you advocate, so you can stick your little blue books up your ass. I wont be supporting your company ever again.
