Due to the military invasion by Russia, the zoo in Hungary, a neighboring country of Ukraine, has begun accepting pets and animals that are difficult to raise in Ukraine.
We started accepting animals at the zoo in Nyiregyhaza, northeastern Hungary, about 50 kilometers from the Ukrainian border.
At the request of a woman who fled the suburbs of Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, due to the military invasion by Russia, the zoo picked up a kind of monkey "common marmoset" that was kept as a pet on the 8th of this month.
The owner received it in Hungary on his way to Germany for evacuation.
It will be kept in a quarantine facility for the next two months to avoid contact with other animals.
In addition, the zoo plans to keep animals from the Ukrainian zoo, which has become difficult to raise due to the effects of combat, and has already secured space for it.
The current plan is to take 12 lions, 11 chimpanzees and 2 orangutans from Ukrainian zoos and elsewhere.
"Unfortunately, I've heard that some Ukrainian zoos have been damaged in battle," said the director's guide, Shu Raslo. "We will do whatever we can to save the animals." ..
