A bit of a bittersweet moment, I had gone to the Bird Park, in September last year or so for what would be, in retrospect, the final time. Though the place itself held many many memories, of going as a child, with the school or with my parents, it was a little sad to see the place looking its age. I think that the art of exhibiting animals has changed vastly in the past fifty years, so to see the birds in cages was something that, as an adult, I was not particularly enthralled with. I remember thinking, the last few times that I went to the Jurong Bird Park, that the Parrot Paradise was especially dated. The conditions were much to crowded for the number of birds in each cage though there were small exceptions. I much preferred the bigger aviaries where the birds had space to fly, something that the Bird Paradise should have in spades. Hopefully, the birds will have a better life there. All in all, though I understand the need to update the exhibits, enclosures and the other practical reasons, I think raw sentimentality will mean that I will, in fact, miss (the) Jurong Bird Park.
It's a bit sad because one reason why Jurong is well known today is because of Jurong Bird Park. I'm happy that I have visited Jurong Bird Park thrice. An end to such a fun, interesting and educational place. I also live 10 minutes away from here, so no more 10 minute drive to see bird shows anymore!
I previously went to bird paradise just now,seeing this makes me realise that its amazing how singaporeans gather just to say goodbye to their favourite park❤
Sad that the original Bird Park closed. I knew there are a couple of Philippine Eagles there. Hope that on my next visit there will go to the Bird Paradise. All good birds, cheers!
I hope they return the Ph eagles back to their home country and to their original habitat.. These majestic birds dont belong to Singapore and should not be inside a cage
@@slipknot8441 yeah release human reared eagles to the Philippines jungle, im sure they wont be instantly killed by other eagles or die of starvation within 3 days!!
@@gamingrex2930 If you had only do your research, these eagles weren't exactly human reared but they were raised and fed by "miniature eagle puppets" meaning they still think that they were raised by their eagle parents.. There were also successful releases in the past so I am 99% sure that these eagles right here would survive if they are released in the wild..
The birds have gone to better habitates and that should be celebrated not mourned as the original bird park has made this possible by learning how to care for and enrich the enviroment these birds need to truely thrive .
Eventually it will be just a plain mechanistic concrete jungle island fill with very materialistic kiasu people percapita per area with rapid urbanisation at the expense of nature regardless of other overdone/overkill resource like water and electricity conservation measures until so stingy like public space like the public library without access to charging points and only there for cosmetic show. There is a English saying pennywise, pound foolish..lol
I really hope they reopen this place as a public park. It's a good place to hangout and exercise.
