The Wild Place Project will become known as ‘Bristol Zoo Project’ from next summer, as part of the project to move from Clifton to the edge of the city.
Bristol Zoo bosses are announcing the new name for the visitor attraction at Easter Compton with a photocall involving hundreds of people shaping out the letters of the new name at Tower Meadow in the Wild Place today (Saturday, April 22).
The zoo says the new name ‘reflects the charity’s past and future’, and the announcement comes just days before its controversial plan to redevelop the Bristol Zoo Gardens site at Clifton goes before city councillors.
