Odesa Zoo

Rare animal species can be seen not only in the Red Book, but also at the Odesa Zoo. Here, the most favorable artificial conditions are created in an effort to preserve and increase the number of endangered rare animals. The main credit for building the zoo belongs to H. V. Beyzert, head of the Pivdenklimat society. The organization and construction of the zoo took almost 23 years, yet it is still operating and is constantly being supplemented with new animal species. In 1992, the Odesa Zoo received the status of a protected area. Today, about 260 species of animals live here.

Odesa Zoo is a place that is interesting for adults and children alike, since there is an opportunity to get acquainted with exotic animals, see rare exhibition items and simply spend time well.
