It appears Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba has chosen a new company to operate the Jackson Zoo. Posted on the agenda for next week's meeting of the Jackson City Council:
The temporary lease for the Jackson Zoological Society ends on March 22, 2019, absent an extension.

What are chances the company is as dirty as the Jackson water?

Strong Suite Aquariums
They actually look legitimate. I figured we would see Sanford & Son zoo mgmt, LLC (formed in 2019) chosen. Think this company would consider running the zoo that is Jackson?
He got a cousin, a Taliaferro that interned at a zoo up north. They got a LLC and they gone give him a contract on our zoo. Gone get hooked up right too. Same exact folks workin the zoo now going to do they same job though.
Jackson is hood rich since the bond issue. The Mayor has favors to repay!
Another Socrates Garrett company?
Zooceanarium website looks shady.
1. One page had a copyright of 2013 and another says 2017
2. No address or phone number
3. No names or locations of zoos or aquariums they operate or manage
Google says they are located out of Dubai. Great
The St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station that the group will run looks amazing. Too bad we don't have the money for something like that in Mississippi.
Something's happening at the zoo alright -- feral dogs are killing zoo animals.
7:06 is right. any company worth anything will tout projects all over the website.
you can tell me you have 20 years experience, but listing projects SHOWS me what you can do..
@8:16, would you care to provide a link to a zoo management group website that fits your criteria?
Yeah, ummm, website is bullshit. Hinky at best, but that's just another of more crap. Nothing says amateur piker like hosted by Yahoo, FFS. No contact, no corporate address, no corporate hierarchy, no Board of Directors, no management projects or development projects. And no links to sites that might provide the above info. All searches on web lead to promoted web-chaff and redirect (read, LinkedIn, nuff said).

Is no there there. Enter at your own risk. Looks like crap, smells like crap. Good thing we didn't eat it...oh, wait, damn. Gonna guess this comes back to some local yokle lackey floating flack or an international grifter stroking the house on S. President. But that's just me. I'm subject to correction in light of non-specious information.
Silence DoGood
I would bet Chockway's sister is on the board. She will do Violence Interruption seminars at the zoo.
Good money after bad. Give up the hood location and move it to where it is safe, Baby Chock.
The company apparently has not qualified to do business in Mississippi by filing with the MSSOS.

9:11. zooadvisors.com
click about. gives names and a short bio of people and shows a client list
simple google search.
if you also do a simple google search about the group coming here...you find interesting things about the “world association of zoos and aquariums”- it isn’t the AZA..which zooadvisors is a member of...
What kind of troll has time to go research SOS filings for companies that have not even started doing business here yet? Like that really matters. Go pay a lawyer $50 and you are qualified.....like that means something?
No good business sign on to do any work for Jackson.Just that simple,
Any wagers that BabyChok is proposing to kick in MORE money in order for this new potential operator?
Please close the zoo. Two world class zoos in either direction. No need to have one here. It's a waste of money. That money could be used to fill Chokwe's sisters newly formed dispute resolution company, or hire more minority consulting firms to study dispute resolution advancements, etc. Lots of ways to spend that money.
Did MAC get a certificate from his secretary that says he is a certified zoo manager???
Tommy Wilken has a pic on FB where he feeds an elephant, most qualifying evidence for Zooceanarium to run a zoo.
Hey 7:23. I look at the SOS to see who is licensed to do business in MS. Yeah, it’s not a hard process, but it does identify officers, addresses and how legit a company is. This is a group that is getting a contract at the city. If they can’t follow the simple rules, how successful do you think they will be at running a zoo?
Be glad very glad the zoo isn't partnering with Zooceanarium/Davis. Notice Wilken (former managing partner with Davis) has his own company now and has all the staff because they parted ways recently.
