The last time I was there, the hyenas were fighting because they were in such a small cage and one of them had had it's back end ripped off and it was infected and crawling with maggots.
Every single animal there (except the ostrich) had something wrong with it. They all had injuries, were really skinny or had diseases. There's one arabian wolf with mange that is highly contagious and people can get it to. I wouldn't ever take kids there.
The place should be shut down and the animals rescued. Not that you ever see the same animals twice because they all die within weeks of being taken there. It's all really old and broken and there are a couple of cages that if the animal had enough energy it could escape really easily.
Horrendous place that no-one should ever visit.
