A plan to build a second Australia Zoo, this time near the famous Las Vegas strip, is back on the agenda almost five years after first being proposed...

Las Vegas mayor Oscar Goodman said at the weekend the zoo project would include an enclosure which would include "crocodile wrestling."

According to reports from the casino capital of the world, representatives of the Irwin family met with Mr Goodman last week about opening the new zoo, which would resemble the original at Beerwah.

The new zoo would reportedly cost $40 million to build.

"It looks like a great project with a crocodile-type enclosure where they would wrestle with the crocodiles and feed the crocodiles and have a real educational component to it and we're going to continue those discussions," Mr Goodman told KTNV.
