Shanghai tries to tame wild English translations

Amid Shanghai's ongoing battle against signs and public advertisements with poor English translations, things can still get wild - as on the website of the Shanghai Wild Animal Park.

The name of the park appears three ways: Shanghai Wild Animal Park, Shanghai Wildlife Park and Shanghai Wild Park.

In its introduction, which intends to show visitors that a large number of wild animals live in the park, and that tourists can get a great view of them, the translation is rendered: "large populations on show" and "tourists would be in close contact with animals".
