They could add some outstanding animals to the attraction and become world-famous as a nature conservator institution by just building a "butterfly pavilion" that could house and breed millions of colorful and/or endangered butterflies from the region. Plants, bushes and trees in the pavilion could also be grown on site, cutting costs. With a few enterprising zoological entomologists on board, a world-class attraction could be easily, cheaply and popularly in place in less than a year.
I remember that place from when I was a kid 10 years ago, I always wanted to come back, I guess that’s gone now. I remember the massive crocodile and liger. I even held my first snake their, guess that’s gone.
@@gv2817 Hmm… Well I got a DVD called “Wild Florida”. It has 4 programs. Among those is about Crocodiles. American Crocodiles. It even featured the late Crocosaurus himself. Right before the St. Augustine Alligator Farm & most of the know Crocodilians that are seen there. What I’m saying is buy yourself a DVD of “Wild Florida”, it’ll help bring the comfort of the good old memories of visit Jungle Parrot Island.
@@gv2817 #1 Your Welcome. #2 (Sigh) Try Amazon or EBay. There might be new Fresh clean ones & sometimes there’s Like New & Very Good Condition ones. Remember, it’s titled “Wild Florida” & it has an Alligator on the front. Good luck & feel free to reply back if you saw a good old memory lane on the Crocodile program.
Amazing to see the dismantling of captive exotics, even if only a portion. Humans can learn about, love, and respect nonhumans without keeping them captive. Perhaps the next project will be an even further step away from non-native exotics, rebranding into a true Florida Jungle Island as a sanctuary for south Florida's endemic species.
