ABUS Locks Are Zoo’s Best Friend One of the UK’s biggest and best zoos to keep its endangered species of African dogs safe and secure once more turned to ABUS. Chester Zoo is using the market leading ABUS 83 Padlock Series to protect and secure its Painted Dogs – also known as African Hunting Dogs – within its newly launched African-themed exhibit.
ABUS 83 padlocks normally supplied with a standard 1A keyway as an off-the- shelf security solution, can also be made up with ABUS Pfaffenhain (APf) unique registered sections. This means 83 Series padlocks can be retro fitted to existing APf cylinder systems and new systems can be planned and supplied with appropriate padlock security specified into the needs of the location. Wayne Wheatley, Security Manager at Chester Zoo, says: “Our team chose ABUS locks because our existing suited system is ABUS and we needed that reassurance of security, reliability and continuity. The robust system offers a business investment for a number of years as we have many thousands of locks on site.
“As for our seven Painted Dogs – five male and two female – they have now adapted to their new environment well and are settling into pack life.” Chester Zoo is home to 7,000 animals of 400 different species. Conservation is at its heart and about half of these species are threatened in the wild. Painted Dogs are unique to Africa and they are among the continent’s most endangered species. It is estimated that a mere 3,000 to 5,000 remain. Persecution, poaching and road kills - all the result of human intervention - present the greatest challenge to the survival of Painted Dogs. If you would like more information about Painted Dogs then go to
