Whilst that would seem the most logical outcome for all concerned it seems from reading a post Surfcrest had posted from a farang guy with inside knowledge of such matters that the whole zoo idea is now dead in the water as it was to be privately funded and they believe that all the negative publicity around this story has now killed off any chance of that ever happening.

Also interesting to note that he stated that the whole episode is a result of infighting at the temple between two sides vying for supremacy, as with all things in Thailand there is no doubt money behind the whole story at some level and things are never quite what they first seem perhaps.
