Florida Zoo Fences Out Pokemon Go Players

The Naples Zoo in Collier County, Florida is warning Pokemon Go players to stay out of restricted sections of the zoo. Some Pokestops, or points of interest that give you free items, are in employees-only areas, which prompted zoo personnel to contact game developers and ask them to move the stops into public areas. Signs have been put up urging people to respect zoo boundaries. Employees don’t want players to start jumping over fences just to catch their next Pokemon. Other zoos, like the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore, which hosts an event called Pokemon Mornings at the Zoo, have actually used the game as a method to attract visitors.
