    Orana Wildlife Park is no longer banned from taking in new animals

    Orana Wildlife Park is no longer banned from taking in new animals


    The Christchurch zoo has met all requirements set by the Zoo and Aquarium Association, following a six-month review.

    It can resume animal transfers and breeding programmes.

    It comes after allegations of unreported animal deaths and an unsafe workplace arose at the wildlife park last year.
