Inside The Singapore Zoo During COVID-19 Lockdown | On The Red Dot | Inside A Zoo | Part 1/4

Visitor numbers are at an all-time low as the COVID-19 pandemic forces zoos around the world to shut their doors. But as Singapore’s circuit breaker ends, how are Singapore’s wildlife parks preparing to welcome back their visitors? How will they cope and find the funds to keep going?
Inside the zoo, its oldest living Sumatran orangutan, Charlie, gets ready for his close-up while Quincy the Amazon parrot disrupts a livestream with his raucous singing. Behind the scenes, an endangered Sri Lankan leopard arrives at the zoo to help repopulate his species. But the veterinarian team must find a way to check his reproductive health before he meets his mate.

Beautifully done. Thank you. Wish it was longer. The Life of the animals and the work of the zookeepers is fascinating.

Stay tuned for the next episode!

I can’t agree more. Amazing work from the amazing keepers ❤️

I honestly think this would make a great series. I imagine there would be quite a lot of interest in knowing what goes on behind the scenes of the Zoo and learning a bit more about the animals. Edit: I kinda thought this was a one off thing (hadn't reached the end yet). Anyway, looking forward to more in the series!

[@tianpei8873]

Not

[@mamamememoo]

Agreed.

[@jinlee912]

there's a series called the zoo on animal planet feauturing the Bronx zoo and another one feauturing the san Diego zoo. it would be nice to see a Singapore zoo version

Once again, CNA nailed it. Keep up the great work.

I do believe animals in Singapore zoo are well taken care of unlike those in poorer countries like Indonesia, Pakistan, etc. In Malaysia the zoo even asks people to donate money to feed the animals in the name of adopting one of the animals.

[@catherinesoh3962]

I love our zoo very much and it is thanks to the dedicated teams working to put together such an ecological zoo, tied to the primary school syllabus. Teachers can find endless source of resources by exposing all our senses to such environment The other wildlife parks also need the government to keep them going. We learn to appreciate and educate our children to care and be kind to all living specimens.

[@kittisara8829]

So proud of our zooand the people who look after it all!

Part 2 of #InsideAZooCNA is out now: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJzFYXyAYrOhf80 Step behind the scenes and witness the zoo's effort in preserving Singapore's biodiversity.

[@giantlow]

was wondering zoos can tie up with wholesalers and farms to purchase "ugly" fruits and veggies to save cost.

[@lucasliew7902]

In the wild, animals wouldn't even go for the bad fruit and you want to feed them those?

[@giantlow]

​@@lucasliew7902 Ugly food are not bad. They are merely not well shaped or have blemishes which would not pass supermarkets high standards for aesthetics. Check out www.straitstimes.com/singapore/meet-the-people-getting-ugly-food-onto-plates-and-away-from-the-bin

[@sidmichael1158]

Virtual show? Such a great idea.

[@TakesakaJinn]

Aye, now that you think of it, some animals will be less stressed due to the lack of physical audience

When did the ZOO have the panda?

[@jinlee912]

it was already there 4 years ago

[@TheFatmerrill]

you know how in America we have the regular birds that come into our zoos and your like hey youre not a zoo bird youre just a regular bird, well in tropical countries where monkeys are native do wild monkeys ever get in and chill with the zoo monkeys?

[@raafqir1821]

Nope, since the zoo is usually located in the city, far from the natural jungle where they live

[@TheFatmerrill]

@@raafqir1821 ah yea I guess that is true, plus those wild monkeys could be bad eggs and smuggle illegal bananas into the zoo monkes

[@bbrinergaming3694]

@@TheFatmerrill actually they do. In the Singapore zoo they actually put signages up to remind us to not feed the wild animals as they can sustain themselves with the forests near mandai (all under conservation, dont worry) In fact, today, some guests were "harassed" by a couple wild monkeys for food. Even snatching soda cups or plastic bags.

BTW if any animal die it due to "underlying condition" too ok .

How come the female panda doesn't produce any offspring yet after so many years? Is it because of the heat or china choose an impotent male panda or infertile female panda?

[@panzersouth]

Why no plans to vaccinate all animals in singapore zoo ? All animals should be vaccinated. This is to "protect" them , "protect" their family . Beside, after jabbed it just feel like "only a flu" . Those animal who do not jab will be "barred" for work, mall and need to pay their own medical bill . Remember the key word "protect" .
