Knuthenborg Safaripark eröffnet Evolutionsmuseum am 13. Juni
Der beliebte Knuthenborg Safaripark auf der dänischen Insel Lolland bietet seinen Besucherinnen und Besuchern ab dem 13. Juni eine aufregende neue Attraktion und damit auch einen Blick in die Urzeit der Evolution. Das Evolutionsmuseum öffnet am 13. Juni seine Tore und nimmt den Besucher mit auf eine spannende und informative Reise durch die Entwicklung des Lebens auf unserer Erde von der Zeit des Perm bis heute. Zu sehen sind unter anderem auch die Skelette von Dinosauriern und anderer Tiere aus dem Zeitalter des Perm.

"Big Joe" ist die Attraktion im Knuthenborg Safaripark
Ein besonderes Highlight des Evolutionsmuseum ist "Big Joe", ein Skelett eines Allosaurus. Das Skelett, das zu über 90 Prozent erhalten ist, stammt aus den USA: Dort wurde es im Jahr 2015 im Bundesstaat Wyoming gefunden und ausgegraben. "Big Joe" gilt als das weltweit besterhaltene Allosaurus-Skelett. Der Allosaurus war vor etwa 155 Millionen Jahren einer der führenden Raubsaurier. Die Tiere wurden bis zu neun Meter lang und brachen gute anderthalb Tonnen auf die Waage.

Tiere aus dem Zeitalter des Perm
Das Evolutionsmuseum bietet wie schon erwähnt auch eine umfangreiche Sammlung von Tieren aus dem Zeitalter des Perm. So werden neun Skelette aus dieser Zeit präsentiert, darunter das des räuberisch lebenden Dimetrodon. Die Ausstellung des Museums zeigt die wichtigsten Perioden der Evolutionsgeschichte einerseits mithilfe von Skeletten und andererseits mit Rekonstruktionen. Das Erlebnis wird mit Duft-, Licht- und Toneffekten angereichert. Am Ende der Ausstellung erfährt der Besucher, hier der Bezug zu den im Park lebenden Tieren zu erkennen ist. Zu diesen Tieren, gehören Giraffen, Löwen und Elefanten.
Der Besuch des Evolutionsmuseums koste nichts extra, sondern ist im gesamten Eintrittspreis für den Knuthenborg Safaripark inkludiert. Der Safaripark bietet den Besuchern ein umfangreiches Wegenetz von insgesamt 23 Kilometern, die vor allem mit dem Fahrzeug befahren werden. In einzelnen Bereichen ist es erlaubt, das Auto zu verlassen. Neben Wildtieren aus Afrika, Amerika und Asien gibt es im Park auch den sogenannten Dinosaurierwald. Dort können die Besucher lebensgroße Rekonstruktionen von Dinosauriern aus der Nähe bewundern.

Weltweit besterhaltenes Exemplar: Raubdinosaurier findet neue Heimat in Dänemark Das besterhaltene Allosaurus-Skelett der Welt hat eine neue Heimat im Knuthenborg Safaripark: In der savannenartigen Parkanlage auf der dänischen Insel Lolland…
So, today I went to Knuthenborg Safari Park with my mom, something we’ve been looking forward to a good two months. It’s a place I’ve been a lot to as a child, and I was looking forward to seeing it with grown eyes and, most of all, record it all and make a vlog out of it.
But it also meant to leave Hamilton alone for many hours, more than he’s tried before. So I was pretty worried. During the morning before I left, I made sure he had everything he needed. I refilled his bowl, gave him an extra amount of clean cold water and sprayed both him and his cage with water to make sure it was cool while I was gone. And I let him spend as much time as possible with me outside of his cage.
Before I left, I turned on my webcam so I could see what he’d be doing while I was gone. But most importantly, if he was screaming for me and being noisy. Since my neighbor, Mrs. Exceptionally Good Hearing as I have named her, once upon a time claimed that he was quote: “Being very noisy for many hours a day.”
This confused me a great deal since everyone I know has agreed that Hamilton is an exceptionally quiet bird. And I agree as well. So I was curious to see just how noisy he’d be when he was going to be alone for 8 hours straight. I figured maybe he’s noisy when he’s alone rather than when I’m home?
So I come home, he’s happy to see me, but doesn’t seem to have been bored while I was gone. He gets all the kisses scritches and he joins me while I change clothes and remove my makeup, all that routine stuff. Then I finally sit down, with Hamilton next to me, ready to hear just how noisy he is when I’m gone.
Through 8 hours of footage... he didn’t say one single fucking tweet.
WHAT is my neighbor on? Whatever it is, there needs to added “hears noises that isn’t there” on the side effects. I know you might be thinking: “Well, he might just have been quiet TODAY.” Oh, no, no, no. My neighbor SPECIFICALLY wrote in her letter that he had been noisy and bugging her for a week before she complained, describing it as him screaming for hours on end every single day. Also, this isn’t the first time I’ve put my webcam on to check his noise level.
I get the same result every time. Absolute silence.
And while I’ve been sitting here, writing this, he hasn’t said anything either. As per usual. He said a single tweet when I came home and said hi. I recognized the tweet as him copying my way of saying “hi”, which he’s been doing since I’d only had him for two weeks.
Oh, no, he says HI BACK. Call the fucking police why don’t you.
He was quiet for 8 fucking hours straight. My neighbor should probably start considering if what she’s hearing isn’t tinnitus or something, cause it sure as shit isn’t my bird x’D
Also bonus story: When I had a friend over and we were livestreaming while playing an RPGmaker horror game, she ALSO came down to complain that we were being noisy. The moment someone knocked on my door, I knew it was her. Who else would it be? xD Basically I just opened my door with a toothpaste smile, asking kindly if we were being loud? And she was being all polite herself, but I swear to God, if this was some sitcom and people could see us from outside... I think it’d be one of those: “Oh, yeah, they both be faking those smiles and really want to kill each other” moments xD
So I went to Knuthenborg Safaripark the other day and met all these lovely animals. Even a newly born lama! I tried a few different things while editing and I'm quite happy with the way they turned out.

Got a bit more organized today with the process-mapping. I am just learning to use Visio now, but I think I did okay to illustrate the journey through Knuthenborg. The timeline is an approximation from my own experience in the park, and not based on otherwise collected data.
I guess the next step is to look more into segmentation, targeting and positioning. I am feeling a bit frustrated because I don't really know where to start, and where I am going.
What I do know is what my initial thought was for this project. I wanted to make a digital solution to improve the customer experience in the park. Specifically by creating/improving the communication channels between staff and customers. Optionally rethinking the entry/exit procedures, to improve flow and be in control of capacity limitations.
But how to get from these thoughts to a good project rooted in multiple theories, I don't know. I guess we'll see what happens.
