    It would be good if a rich western zoo would support this zoo...

    Some of the Czech Zoos are working with Tbilisi Zoo to recover from the flooding, Prague Zoo sent a team to help with the immediate aftermath. There is a lot of information on the Prague Zoo Facebook page, including photos.

    Great news (another case of me being proved wrong, which can be a good thing!).
