Mission to #SaveOurZoo accomplished
Updated | By Bronwyn Hardick

Recent statements made by the US embassy warning its citizens touring or living in South Africa who planned to visit the National Zoological Gardens of South Africa (Pretoria Zoo) to rather not due to huge security concerns had left the heritage site in a very grim light.
The Complimentary Breakfast team set out on a mission to change this perception by putting a plan together that will help improve the safety and security of the area’s surrounding the zoo and ultimately, #SaveOurZoo.
They first spoke to Craig Allenby, the National spokesperson for the Zoological Gardens about the embassy's statements and found out the the security within the zoo walls is not where the problem lies, but in the areas surrounding the zoo. Retired SAPS specialist Bushie Engelbrecht was then contacted and requested to do a full risk analysis on the area surrounding the zoo.
He made his recommendations which were passed on to Kgosientso Ramokgopa, the mayor of Tshwane.
This is what happened at the live broadcast from the zoo this morning:
Sexpo stars Tanya Tate, Vicki Chase and Evan Stone join the team and prove the American embassy wrong.
Americans enjoy the top 4 attractions at the zoo:
4. Opaki
3. Komodo Dragon
2. Ragger-tooth Shark
1. Gorillas
Thanks to everyone that rallied around this burning issue to what they can to protect the zoo
