Rhino take up residence in new Chessington attraction: ZUFARI
The first inhabitants of Chessington World of Adventures' new themed land, ZUFARI: Ride into Africa, have arrived.
The Surrey theme park is now home to three white rhinos, which have come from zoos in Holland, France and Portugal, necessitating the need for the zookeepers to learn commands in all languages.
Over the next few weeks the rhino will be joined by other animals including Rothschild giraffes, greater flamingos, blesbok, Nile lechwe and Grevy's zebra.
ZUFARI will be a theme park adventure crossed with a safari experience. Visitors will take a safari truck expedition into an African kingdom, where a specialist conservation team have stumbled on a previously undiscovered land.
Guests will enter an interactive pre-show cinema experience to be briefed on the story, before forming a team and jumping aboard an off-road vehicle to head into the African outback.
General manager of the resort, David Smith, says: "As the only safari experience inside the M25 and the only theme park attraction of its kind, ZUFARI: Ride into Africa will allow people to get an authentic taste of Africa without having to venture far from the big city."
The new experience will be launched in March 2013, when the park opens after the winter break. Chessington offers 40 rides in nine themed lands and a SEA LIFE centre, as well as a safari-themed hotel.
