High-quality X-TEND enclosure nets for primates who enjoy climbing

ARMED FOR ALL WEATHER

The Ostrava Zoo and Botanical Park is located in the deep northeast of the Czech Republic. After the zoo in Chomutov, Ostrava Zoo is the second largest zoo in the country with 100 hectares. The inhabitants of the third largest city in the Czech Republic enjoy visiting their animal friends in the zoo, whether in summer or winter. Chimpanzees are extremely popular. The people in charge of the zoo have built a special outdoor enclosure for them.

The most important component for this species-appropriate outdoor enclosure is the X-TEND stainless steel rope net from CARL STAHL ARC. & nbsp; This outdoor facility also gives chimpanzees the opportunity to climb around outdoors in winter. 13 edge supports and five supports in the center support the X-TEND stainless steel roof net.
