Kyiv Zoo is trying to keep animals like ‘Tony’ the gorilla warm during hours-long power cuts. A team at Berlin Zoo has managed to raise $430,000 to pay for generators and other items
Dykarova said primates become less active and stop eating when there is no light. As a temporary solution, they have installed battery-powered lights.
The generators will provide additional heating as well as electricity to the zoo, whose own generators are insufficient for its needs. "We know that February will be a tough month for us, and we need to do all we can to ensure that our animals don't realise there is a war going on beyond their enclosures," he said.
