Rivne Zoo continues preparations for the winter cold.

Rooms are being prepared for wintering of thermophilic species, feed brooms and hay for feeding are being prepared.

Due to disruptions in the operation of the power system due to strikes by Russian missiles and UAVs, special attention is paid to providing the zoo with generators for uninterrupted supply of heat and energy.
