Novosibirsk, the zoo - links of one chain!

Have you ever visited Novosibirsk? Zoo, located in the capital of Siberia (unofficial status of the city), in a picturesque pine forest, is considered the largest in Russia. On a huge area of 60 hectares, thousands of representatives of the animal world live. Many of them are on the verge of extinction and included in the Red Books of various organizations, as well as participate in the International programs for the protection of rare species of world fauna.

In the protected area where Novosibirsk is located, the zoo contains animals that are exceptionally beautiful and graceful. The leaders of the zoo decided to come up with an emblem with their image. Today the snow leopard is adorned on the emblem , as well as a unique animal dressing, which for the first time gave offspring in this place.

The history of the development of the house for animals began in the middle of the 20th century. At first it was a modest animal garden with dozens of birds and animals. Later he survived the Great Patriotic War, fire, change of place, gradually increasing the composition, replenishing it with a lot of animals and birds. And all this happened on the territory of the city, which is called Novosibirsk. Today the zoo, thanks to organizers and amateurs, is a member of three EAZA International Unions (an organization that unites zoos and aquariums).

For all of the existence of the zoo, since the origins, great work has been done. A unique collection of animals has been formed, numbering almost a thousand individuals. A few years ago, we managed to bring out a hybrid of a lioness and a tiger, which was called a liger, the ligret female, in turn, already brought the first offspring - the lilygran.

Most people are interested in who was the first tenant of a house built for animals in the capital of Siberia with the beautiful name of Novosibirsk. Zoo, bears in which today are permanent guests, were the first to shelter them. Today, there live polar bears in a special aviary. Kai and Gerda (the name of their favorite heroes) enjoy the tremulous love of the visitors and have already become stars. A webcam is installed in their house, thanks to which you can follow the life of animals at any time.

Visiting the zoo will leave indelible impressions not only for adults but also for young guests. Here you can admire not only rare species of birds and animals of our planet, but also become a spectator of performances of animals regularly held. Soon there will be a long-awaited dolphinarium that, undoubtedly, will enrich the zoo and deliver its guests a lot of pleasant emotions.

Tired visitors are invited to digress from the animal world, and switch to entertainment attractions or ride on ponies and horses. You can have a snack in cozy cafes, and you can buy a souvenir for memory - in the shopping kiosks.

The ticket price in the Novosibirsk Zoo is quite democratic. For a moderate fee, you can see rare species of animals, many of which are in this zoo, watch their way of life and cheer up from communicating with them!
