A member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the Nikolaev Zoo, which recently turned 120 years old, needs help to save animals from starvation during wartime.



Most of the animals living there are listed in the Red Book.

The zoo's collection includes about 400 species of animals, it is the largest in Ukraine. The establishment is currently closed to visitors. Keeping animals is becoming difficult, even despite volunteer help from abroad.

Kontramarka joined the initiative to help save the animals of the Nikolaev Zoo, who found themselves in a difficult situation due to hostilities.

Everyone can support this initiative by purchasing free zoo tickets on the Kontramarka platform. All proceeds will be transferred to help animals.
