Kyiv Zoo is home to more than 4000 animals and it is one of the largest zoos in the former Soviet Union. It is about 34 hectares large and the only large zoo in Kyiv Ukraine. What will go to happen those innocent animals in this critical situation?Â
Present Situation in Kyiv Zoo
The Kyiv Zoo is almost closed for visitors. Instead of loving talks of daily visitors, ballistics, Shells, and Rockets threaten the animals in Kyiv Zoo. Terrified animals are stuck in the zoo and the zookeepers struggle overnight to calm the animals. Animals respond very fearfully while the bomb explosions and loud sound of attack. The zoo chief Kyrylo Traintin pointed out that it is impossible to evacuate animals and very hard to provide veterinary service and transportation. Animals are in grave danger because of the war between Ukraine and Russia. However, the zookeepers are relying on a dwindling supply of food to keep the animals fed in the manner as usual.

Evacuation
The war is causing the animals so much stress and fear. Therefore some animals have been relocated to underground galleries and indoor enclosures. Some animals evacuated to Poland. The zoo employers work so hard and do everything in their best to comfort and communicate with animals as much as possible.
Helping Hand of Poland
The Polish Zoo has evacuated animals from Kyiv and they are requesting donations of equipment and food. ‘The Poznan’ residents were asked to leave dry and wet canned food at the gate of the new Zoo. In addition, they ask for painkillers, anti-inflammatory, first aid kits, disinfectants, and blankets too. Let’s give hand to rescue these innocent lives.
Let’s come forward to say No to the War, against these innocent lives. They are not responsible for any kind of harmful actions towards people. So, why do we disturb them? They too have a right to live peacefully on this land. This land belongs to all living benign but not only for Humans. So, let them live free and peacefully.
