A human jungle in Regent's Park
Article Abstract:
In 1948 the superintendent of London Zoo found several corrupt practices which had to be stopped. Automaticket was introduced and the staff began strikes and boycotts. When the superintendent left, the union facilitated 'perks' again. The aquarium was inadequately cared for. Relations between junior and senior staff were poor. Scientists on the council of the Zoological Society were not interested in administration or commerce.
