Chester Zoo updates the wording of a ticket listing after it was mocked online for describing a “child predator tour” for £25. The zoo says the text was published in error and is no longer shown in that form.
A spokeswoman explains the issue comes from the zoo’s default naming convention in its ticketing system. According to the zoo, the wording is changed quickly once noticed, and the original phrasing was linked to a system-generated name rather than an intended programme description.
Both outlets report the same core sequence: the listing attracts attention, the zoo responds with an explanation focused on a technical or system naming problem, and the wording is revised promptly. No additional details about the tour content are provided in the reports.
