According to a report in the Scottish newspaper The Herald, the city of Glasgow is planning a £35 million ($57 million) rainforest zoo beside the Clyde due to open by 2014. The complex on the banks of the Clyde on the outskirts of Glasgow will be inspired by one of Europe’s most successful zoos, Burgers’ Zoo in Holland, where animals are housed in controlled habitats including rainforests and deserts which visitors can wander through.
The city hopes to get the attraction up and running in time for the Commonwealth Games in 2014. A hotel or conference centre could also be integrated into the attraction to help generate cash.
