Many zoos in Ukraine have been hit hard by Russian military aggression and need help. We are grateful to the foreign community and animal rights activists who have provided our zoo with animal feed and other necessities for 4months. And we, for our part, will help other zoos of Ukraine," Kyiv zoo.
4 tons of fodder will be delivered as soon as possible to the Mykolaiv zoo, which suffers the most. 2 tons will soon be transferred to the Odesa zoo, 800 kg to Rivne, 400 kg to Cherkasy. The rest of the feed will be distributed among other zoos in Ukraine according to the individual needs of the animals.
