After the high winds
Text: an original contemporary report-style practice extract.
Strong winds brought a large branch down across the wildlife park’s raised woodland walkway. The park opened at the usual time, but the walkway remained closed throughout the afternoon and the scheduled otter-feeding talk was cancelled. Visitors could still enter the indoor insect house and the education room. Keepers confirmed that no animals had escaped from their enclosures. A sign at the admissions desk stated that another safety inspection would take place at four o’clock. Visitors who had booked the talk were offered places on a later date.
Identify two parts of the wildlife park visit that were unavailable that afternoon.
