Not only is this a total contradiction of the Blue Mountains’ image of promoting wildlife and conservation, the proposed enclosure is to be set up inside a shopping mall to try and encourage more customers. Even PETA has a campaign against the owners of the shopping centre. Check it out for more details at ttp://action.petaasiapacific.com/ea-campaign/clientcampaign.do?ea.client.id=110&ea.campaign.id=3801 <http://action.petaasiapacific.com/ea-campaign/clientcampaign.do?ea.client.id=110&ea.campaign.id=3801> This tourist ploy is a blatant exploitation of these gentle animals, who like to spend their day sleeping, not getting their picture taken with tourists! | Number of Users: 1 | Number of Posts: 1 | ||||||
