Baby Boom in Almaty Zoo
Almaty Zoo is the oldest zoo in Kazahstan and it is a member of the Eurasian Regional Association of Zoos and Aquariums (EARAZA).
Summing up the results of the first half of the year, Almaty Zoo may say that it was an exciting period.
During this spring Baby Boom, the zoo has had offsprings from a number of animals. There were born: a Japanese macaque Jacque, a Dzo (hybrid between yak and cow), Shetland pony Miiz, Chapman’s zebra and 6 Argalises. But the most exciting was the appearance of 2 Himalayan Brown Bears, last time in the Zoo it happened 36 years ago. All the animals are healthy and may be seen in the Zoo.
