Sevastopol Zoo, Animal sanctuary in Sevastopol, Crimea.
Sevastopol Zoo is an animal facility in the coastal city featuring separate sections for different species including birds of prey, rodents, and mammals from South America. Each section includes natural landscaping and informational boards explaining the animals' origins and behavior patterns.
The facility opened in 2012 as the city's first dedicated animal sanctuary. Its collection grew through cooperative exchanges with other zoological institutions and breeding programs.
The zoo serves as an educational hub where visitors learn about animal behavior and conservation needs through direct observation and displays. Local schools frequently bring students here to experience wildlife up close and understand different species' habitats.
The zoo is located on Biryuleva Street and welcomes visitors year-round. Wear comfortable footwear and allow time to read the informational displays at each enclosure.
The facility was developed under director Remigiyus Vrady, who built strategic partnerships with other zoological facilities. These connections allowed the zoo to acquire and maintain less common animal species.
