Pata Zoo has denied there is any deal to sell the country’s last gorilla, Bua Noi, for 30 million baht so that she can be relocated to Germany, saying its management never thought of putting a price on the cherished animal to gain profits.
It was responding to reports that the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment was seeking to negotiate with Pata Pinklao Department Store, which runs the zoo, to free the 33-year-old female gorilla.
