Furuvik Zoo (''Furuviksparken'') is an amusement park and zoo in Furuvik, Sweden.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Välkommen - Furuvik )〕 Furuviksparken was founded in 1900 by Oscar Jakobsson and officially opened by count Olle Cronstedt. In 1938 the zoo was bought by Gösta Nygren, who managed the zoo for 45 years. Nygren established a youth circus, ''Furiksbarnen'' (the children of Furuvik), which became the main attraction not only in the park but also on travelling tours. Nyhren also introduced live concerts with famous artists, like Louis Armstrong, Jussi Björling and Sammy Davis. Gävle Municipality took over the park 1983, again sold to Tom Widorson in 2004, and in 2010 sold to the present owner, Parks & Resorts Scandinavia. ==Santino the chimpanzee== The zoo attracted a degree of international attention when it was reported in March 2009 that a chimpanzee residing there had planned attacks on visitors. Santino planned attacks by taking stones from the protective moat and placing them only on the side facing the visitors on the island where he lives. Later, when the visitors arrived, he would throw the stones across the moat at them. This shows that the cognitive ability for forward planning is not uniquely human.〔(Skandinaviens första anläggning för studier av människoapors tänkande ), pressmeddelande från Lunds universitet 30 maj 2008 (sidan besökt 30 juli 2009)〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Furuviksparken」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
