The country’s wildlife and parks authority said yesterday that it will inspect the Bangkok zoo where a 58‑year‑old zookeeper was fatally mauled by a pride of lions, with the five animals to be confined for behavioural adjustments.
Atthapol Charoenchansa, director-general of the Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP) said the department would send officers to inspect the entire Safari World, including the strength of cages, visitor services, animal control equipment and emergency response units.
