Disabled Kids In Nagano Get Night Trip To The Zoo!

from Disability News Japan · host Michael Gillan Peckitt

And it is spreading widely among Japanese zoos, albeit normally as a one-day event as they embrace the twilight by opening their gates at night or reserving entire days exclusively for those with special needs and their families.
