[2][3][4] There are over 300 species and more than ten thousand animals in the zoo, including endangered ones such as giant pandas and South China tigers.

[5] On May 1, 2014, a lioness in the park gave birth to three cubs and neglected to care for them.

Park workers had begun bottle-feeding the cubs in order to keep them nourished.

[6] On October 2, 2014, a horse that was pulling tourists in a heavy carriage in the zoo, for the twelfth time that day, collapsed and died.

[7] The tourists, as well as some of the zoo's security guards, concluded that the horse's death was a result of overworking and malnourishment.
