Bristol Zoo campaigners say the site can still be saved despite it closing last year

Campaigners fighting to reverse the closure of Bristol Zoo say they are still confident they can force a change of heart from bosses at the famous Bristol attraction.

The ‘Save Bristol Zoo’ campaigners are marching from Clifton Triangle up to the iconic zoo site this morning, Sunday, March 12, and claim there is still time to save it.

The march comes in the week the zoo, which closed to the public last September, confirmed its two lions had been moved to a sanctuary in Kent, and had been scheduled to take place a few days before a key meeting of councillors that could seal the zoo’s fate - but this has now been postponed.
