Creature Comforts - Pied Tamarins
Improvements have recently been made to the Pied Tamarin enclosure at Newquay Zoo which is situated on the island within the Capybara and Tapir exhibit.
The changes are part of the Zoo’s plans to improve insulation on a number of animal enclosures. Sean Sanguinette, Environmental Officer commented, “Last year the thermal imaging report we received when we put our Environmental Management System in place, enabled us to see which of the Zoo’s structures were not performing well in terms of insulation. As a result of this we have been able to identify the worst offending areas and takes steps to improve them.” The Pied Tamarin enclosure has used polystyrene panels and double glazing which should increase performance significantly.
