In my class, a Chester Zoo staff came in and explained to us about how the rain forest is being destroyed by the growing of non sustainable palm oil. Naira ( one of the Chester Zoo staffs ) encouraged us to try and be as sustainable as possible and to be aware and buy anything that has the sustainable palm oil logo. She also told us to encourage others and spread the word of being sustainable and checking for the label. This is why we went on our amazing trip to Chester Zoo.

The day that we visited the zoo, it was fantastic. We visited many animals and it was actually a nice day to come to the zoo. Meanwhile on our trip, we saw some incredible animals but it was sad that some of the animals in the zoo such as Orangutans were critically endangered because of palm oil plantation. ( not all palm oil is bad only non sustainable oil is very effective to animals in a bad way ). Chester Zoo is a really great zoo and do anything they can to spread the message of sustainable palm oil and they try their hardest to make sure non of the animals end up becoming extinct.

During our phenomenal trip, we got to see how many animals live their life endangered or normally as their own species. It was very fascinating and it was great about how we had the opportunity to actually see and visit these incredible animals. We saw some breathtaking species: the feline family, Rhinos, the bird family, the monkey family, Bats, Lizards, Snakes, Meerkats, the bear family and much more animals. Overall my trip was amazing and I would love to visit Chester Zoo once again to see other animals that I didn’t get a chance to see. Remember to always be sustainable.
