Indoor zoo to open in Bucks County

Joe Fortunato is looking to open his own indoor zoo in Bucks county at the end of this week. His first fascination with animals came when as a fourth grader, Joe was bitten by a snake. Although it was painful, Joe developed a curiosity about the reptile. From the snake, his interest permeated to other animals. Joe began owning pets, the first was a hermit crab. His love and passion towards animals drove him to open this new zoo.

I think this is a great idea. Children from schools nearby can visit this zoo, families are able to go for a weekend outing to learn about the animals there. Since Joe is passionate about animals, he can definitely try to influence visitors about conservation. And especially because the zoo is small, Joe will have the opportunity to interact with visitors and really teach them about the animals.
