Dubai Municipality has announced to open a crocodile park .It has awarded a Dh22 million(approx. 6 million USD) contract to a company for the construction of a crocodile park in Dubai. The project will take 14 months to be completed and the preparation phase of the construction operations for the park will commence at the beginning of September. The crocodile park will resemble those found in France with a habitat that is as natural as possible. In the park, crocodiles will be grouped in order to reproduce and multiply as they would in their natural habitat. The park with provide the crocodiles healthy living conditions and constant care. The park will serve as a reserve providing them with the proper nutrition, medical attention and appropriate transportation methods. In addition to the entertainment aspect, the park will grant educational institutions, both schools and universities, and research centres the opportunity to carry out excursions to the park. Seminars will also be held to spread environmental awareness and to educate the public about natural sciences. The project will be 10 kilometres away from Dubai International Airport, making it accessible for both tourists and residents upon completion. All the logistics relating to the construction of the park will be environmentally friendly by using renewable energy and waste treatment keeping in mind the architectural characteristics of the area. The park will target three segments of society — children, families and tourists. The park, which will be around 20,000 square metres, will be located in proximity to Mushrif Park which will integrate residential areas such as Al Muhaisina, Al Mizhar one and two, Mirdif and Al Warqa?a. |
