Zagreb Mayor Milan Bandic said at today's opening ceremony that habitats for wolves, lynxes and bears would be renovated next year and that as of 1 January 2018 visitors would be able to see giraffes which have been missing from the Zagreb Zoo for years due to a lack of space.
The project "The Modernisation of the Zagreb Zoo - Phase 1" is worth nearly HRK 38 million 95% of which was financed by grants from EU funds, while 5% of the amount came from the city budget.
