Artis has been nominated for two awards

Artis Royal Zoo in Amsterdam has been nominated for two ZooSite Awards by public and visitors of Dutch zoos.

Artis has been nominated in two categories - its Chinese three-striped box turtle has been nominated as the nicest birth of a non-mammal, while Artis' modernised Savanne is competing to become the most beautiful enclosure.

Visitors can still vote online (until April 14) and give their opinion about the most beautiful zoo, the nicest birth of a mammal, the best playzone in a zoo and other nominations.

Results will be announced on April 18.

Note that Rotterdam Zoo, Burgers' Zoo, AquaZoo Friesland and others are competing for the best of the best too.
