The ~~~~erty had been neglected since the outbreak of war and it took ~~~~ than five years to restore the building to its old condition. ~ime passed, the collection of animals on the estate grew to such ~xtent that the Aspinall family decided to ask the public to help ~~ay the mounting coas of upkeep and finally last year, permission ~~~~~ granted by the Canterbury City Council to, open the Zoo Park for ~~~~ months a year, 1st March to 31st October. ~~~~~e are more than thirty different types of animals in the zoo park- ~~~~~ it is the policy of the zoo. to breed from all the species in ~~~~ care, regardless of the cost in human or financial terms. To date, ~~~~~~ of a possible thirty different types of animal that are old ~~~~~gh to prodace, there have been twenty mine successes. The out- ~~~~~ding failure has been the cheetah. ~~~~ as been said that Christianity, Islam and Communism have all pired to encourage man to look down on other living things-be they ~~rees or monkeys.
