African Safari World was a proposed amusement park and zoo, to replace the Werribee Open Range Zoo, 32 kilometres (20 mi) southwest of Melbourne, Australia.[1][3] Warner Village Theme Parks, who already own and operate several properties on the Gold Coast in Queensland, was behind the proposal. The park was scheduled to open in 2010.[1] On 1 June 2008 the Victorian government said it had rejected the proposal, because the cost to taxpayers would have been too great.[4]
