The presentation of the certificate was a continuation of the agreements reached during the visit of the accreditation commission of the Eurasian Regional Association of Zoos and Aquariums to Ashgabat in October this year. The main goal of the visit was to assess the compliance of the Ashgabat Zoo with international standards for its inclusion in EARAZA.
We remind you that during this visit, a bear, a pet of the Volokolamsk Center for Reproduction of Rare Wild Animals, was donated to the Ashgabat Zoo. It was named Sumbar.
