description | Development for tourism can be planned to take consideration for
protection of the surrounding environment and for the attainment of an
equilibrium or ideal balance . This can be achieved through incorporation
of effective management and planning tools such as the carrying capacity
concept.
Current available literature on the concepts of carrying capacity did
not specifically discuss its use and relevance in a tourism development
such as a zoological park. Hence, this case study was conducted on the
carrying capacity of such a development, the Taiping Zoo. This study
aims to promote tourism carrying capacity studies as a n important
consideration to be incorporated into future management plans of the
Taiping Zoo. It also advocates that the concepts and principles of tourism carrying capacity be more widely accepted and utilized in modern day
zoological park operations. |
