Thank you for your email asking about zoos owned by public authorities.
I've passed your email on to my colleagues, Jane Withey and Tom Adams,

Cc Jane/Tom - to see the email below.

Dear Mr Cross
Thank you for your email of 15 June asking for information on zoos. I no
longer work on zoos issues and so am passing your email to my
colleagues, Tom Adams and Jane Withey, who work on zoo licensing for
them to respond to you direct.
I'm not sure if there is a problem with the email address but I note
that I received an identical email from you dated 7 June which I replied
to on Monday 9 June, but as you have re-sent your request presumably you
haven't received that reply.
Yours sincerely
