In addition to expanding the enclosures of the Zoo Management, it is planned to transfer a large number of animals to a breeding facility, in order to provide more space for the animals. Veterinarians and zoo keepers are responsible for not only taking care of all the creatures at the zoo continuously, but also ensuring that each creature has a healthy lifestyle. The zoo will soon undergo a major renovation that is intended to improve both the appearance and the feel of the zoo for both the animals and the visitors.
