Councilman Zander Fabio, from Goiania (middle centre of Brazil), presented at City Hall earlier today a bill calling for the total extinction of Goiania Zoo. In his assessment, the city can do history if the proposal is effective.

Zander affirmed that animals have no quality of life in the zoo.”The model of the zoo is totally archaic in Goiania, outside the standards of health,” he said in an interview to a local newspaper.  For him, the last reform of the zoo was very expensive and did not mean quality of life for the animals.
