They recall that Skopje Zoo has turned into a place where horses intended as food for the zoo were slaughtered, with blood spilled on Ilinden Boulevard, while animals have continually died under unclear circumstances. Among them, they mention giraffes, an elephant, an imperial eagle, the lion Zika, then the rare and protected Przewalski’s horses, Barbary sheep, as well as an outbreak of bird flu.
After several hours of pursuit by the staff, the wolves were returned to their areas, but the Zoo did not inform anyone about this event, even though it is a place with many visitors, where their safety could be called into question,” PLD said.
They are demanding that the management of the Zoo and the City of Skopje explain the incident, clarify whether the animal habitats, especially those that pose a threat to life, are properly secured, and close the zoo to visitors until the case is clarified and responsibility is determined./Telegrafi/
