New from Chance Morgan is its Safari Jeeps ride, with the first example having just opened at an Ohio zoo.
Comprising up to 12 electrically powered, four-person, Jeep-shaped, fibreglass vehicles travelling around a 1200ft track, the first of the rides - called Jungle Trek - is now open at Columbus Zoo in Powell, Ohio.
The ride offers interactive steering and unobstructed views and, with unlimited track options, is designed to allow operators to create an experience which fits seamlessly into exhibits and natural surroundings.
Chance Morgan says that its theoretical capacity is 720 riders per hour per track, with the company offering the option of two tracks.
