War in Ukraine, also the animals under the bombs at the zoo: three dead and many injuredThe entrance to the Ecopark Feldman hit by bombs
White page, black writing in Ukrainian Cyrillic script. "Due to the declaration of martial law, the zoo is closed to visitors." Nothing else on the site of the Kiev zoological park, one of the largest in Ukraine, the scene of heavy fighting during the night just passed. Secondly, the BBC recorded 50 explosions and machine gunshots while in a video circulating on Facebook, like a fire right where the zoo is supposed to be.
The latest update on the health of people and animals arrived yesterday morning directly from Cyril Trentin, CEO of the Park, and did not report news of victims or injuries but of sedatives as needed for animals and fallout shelters for men. We know for sure instead of the death under the bombs of three royal deer and the wounding of some primates at the Ecopark Feldman, where the fourth day of bombing is underway. In a video, the surreal silence of the war was broken by the sounds of the animals and the damage to the structure.
"A natural park 500 kilometers east of Kiev, on the bloody border that divides Russia and Ukraine, outside the city of Kharkiv, another hot spot of the clashes. With four thousand animals, it is one of the structures with the largest zoological collection in Europe, hosting endangered species such as white lions, tigers, European bison, takin, chimpanzees and orangutans. “We can't say it was an accident. Around us there is only forest and a highway, they wanted to hit us even though we are not a military target, ”the zoo staff explains to Today. “The animals live in vast natural areas and we are not yet able to have a certain estimate of the damage. At this moment it is impossible to think about moving or hiding them somewhere. But they are never left alone,the zoo is guarded by some workers who do not abandon them and who continue to take care of them in some way". Even in Kiev, where instead of animals they host about two thousand, men have never abandoned them. CEO Trentin writes, in a caption that accompanies a worried selfie but determined not to give up: "Both day and night the zoo is guarded by 50 workers, animal care never stops. The war is causing them terrible stress, some have been moved to indoor stalls and underground tunnels .Veterinarians monitor their emotional state and, if necessary, provide a sedative.The staff, on the other hand, took refuge during the night in the already prepared fallout shelters, just as the supplies of energy, water and food had already been prepared for 10 days."
