Episode Details

Chester Zoo accidentally launched a “child predator tour” — a chillingly named, 90-minute animal encounter that sparked outrage and memes after a computer glitch mislabeled the experience. Priced at £25 for kids and £30 for adults, the tour promised private access to tigers and lions… but the name alone sent shockwaves online. The zoo quickly apologized, blaming a naming system error and renaming the tours simply “child tour” or “adult tour.” A beloved institution since 1931 and this year’s UK Zoo of the Year, Chester’s blunder turned a simple typo into a viral circus — proving sometimes, it’s not the animals that scare people, it’s what they’re called.
