Sooo...the white mural elements at the Polar bear exhibit's wall are supposed to allow free-climbing suicidal visitors a better access into the enclosure? For the behavioural enrichment of the fortune ursine inhabitants, I presume?
A 1.5 year-old male orangutan currently resides at zoo owner's house. Said to be imported 'from Europe' at age of 1 year and named Joseph originally. I don't believe this. Ukraine is notorious for animal smuggling. Can anybody check the recent births & transfers of orangutans at European zoos? ? ????????? ???????? ??????? ??????????? ?????????????????? ?????????? - ??????? ??????? ?? 1+1 - ???.ua
The zoo "12 months" of Mikhail Pinchuk has received a pair of giraffe, purportedly from another European zoo where these were already paired up. Transliterated names are Nikolai and Maria, not sure if this is the real thing .... though. Link: ? ????? ????? ?? ?????? ?????? ?????? - KP.UA
The male was already living at the zoo since end of July 2015, said to be imported from somewhat German zoo. The female said to be from the same zoo. Also: 3 white lion cubs born at the end of December 2015. Those are living money for the zoo and would be bred as often as possible.
No one EAZA zoo would sent an one-year old orangutan to another zoo, separating from hist mother or zookeeper (hand-rearing). That's too young age, because they stay with their mothers at least for 3-4 years.

Hippo arrived from some French zoo. Photo of pygmy hippo is a mistake. В зоопарк в Киевской области привезли бегемота из Франции (видео) Looks like there is no real underwater view.
Основатель частного зоопарка рассказал, как спасает животных в карантин | ВЕСТИ The zoo owner stated he wouldn't join EAZA because it 'wants to to control all zoo animals', has 'monopoly on rare animals' and waiting for animals takes too long.
