Annual Passes Lukáš Nekolný*, Dana Fialová Original Article 167 The issues in methodology and data interpretation in studies of tourist attractions’ attendance: annual passes Lukáš Nekolný*, Dana Fialová Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Science, Department of Social Geography and Regional Development, Czechia * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The attendance belongs to the basic quantitative indicators, which are used for assessment of the offer in the tourism. It should be used for monitoring of development, geographical structure, seasonality and from interpretational view also for monitoring of achievement or failure. This paper discusses, emphasizes and evaluates the very current topic of methodological differences in the data collection of tourist attractions attendance. The work focuses especially on the subtopic of annual passes on the example of zoos, which belong to the most visited tourist attractions worldwide and where the sale of annual cards is a typical service. Nev- ertheless, this article proves on the example of the zoos in German-speaking countries that the rise of attendance does not only have to show the reality. The total number of visits and the positive attendance development is in some zoos connected to the methodological approach.

  • Primate Report 64 (2002).Pdf
    Foreword Foreword The present issue of Primate Report, presenting selected mixed species exhibits in Zoos of Germany, comprises two parts: The first part represents a survey of primate mixed species exhibits in Zoos and Tierparks of Germany. It focuses on the association of primates with other pri- mate and/or mammal species under captive conditions, in order to evaluate the fea- sibility of mixing specific primate species in Zoo-exhibits, as well as the potential risks and benefits for the animals involved. Individual concepts of enclosure designs based on the requirements of the mixed species are presented along with the experi- ences made by zoo personnel, in establishing and maintaining these polyspecific as- sociations. Beside practical problems, technical demands for particular exhibits are also mentioned. In the second part of this issue, some selected mixed species exhibits without primates involved are presented. This selection is focused on polyspecific associa- tions of mammals which are rarely seen in captivity. By presenting these associa- tions, some valuable information on unusual exhibits is provided to further support the development of polyspecific associations in Zoos and to promote new ideas as al- ternative ways of optimising keeping conditions in general. The issue ends with final remarks on the overall experiences with mixed species exhibits made by zoo staff, including the public relation caused by such exhibits and the educational aspects for visitors. For further information on mixed species exhibits of mammals in Zoos world- wide, the study of Dr. Gabriele Hammer, titled "Gemeinschaftshaltung von Säuge- tieren in Zoos", also available on CD-ROM, is highly recommended (see: HAMMER, 2001).
