Here, where every step is like a journey through the jungle, steppes and tundra, is one of the largest zoos in Russia. The Novosibirsk Zoo named after Rostislav Aleksandrovich Shilo is not just a place for walks with children or a short outing in the fresh air. This is an entire open-air biological museum, where thousands of animals live in conditions as close as possible to their native habitats.
The park covers an impressive 65 hectares - larger than many urban areas. Here you can find about 12 thousand individuals, representatives of almost 800 species. Yes, yes, that’s exactly how many different creatures there are. From a small squirrel to a huge jaguar - everything is there. But the most interesting thing is that more than three hundred of these species are listed in the Red Book of Russia and regional lists of endangered animals. That is, in fact, the zoo is a real fortress for the conservation of biodiversity.
The work with cats and mustelids brought particular glory to the zoo. They have one of the best collections of such animals in the world. It is not surprising that they actively participate in international programs for breeding rare breeds. Zoo employees work with 77 such projects, and are members of serious associations: WAZA, EARAZA, and also apply to become members of EAZA. Does this mean they are at a high level? Of course yes.
Even the ZIMS computer system is used to record each animal, its health status, and origin. These are not just beautiful enclosures, they are a scientific complex with a deep control system. And if you think that this is only a procession of mimicry and pantomime, you are mistaken. Data, plans, documentation are important here.
And this is where the fun begins! Demonstration feedings are carried out almost every day. There are especially many events on weekends. For example, on August 23, they are waiting for argali - giant mountain sheep that can even be taller than a person. And then - large parrots, civet cats, jaguars. Yes, yes, all this can be observed live, without screens, without loss of emotions.
I wonder how the birthday party is going? It turns out that August 24th is the zoo’s anniversary. 78 years old! And believe me, this is not just a number. It's a whole story. We prepared a program especially for the holiday: from trampolines to a pajama party. Even a disco in the morning is on schedule! Just imagine: a mother in pajamas, a child with a flashlight, and music and firecrackers all around.
By the way, there is another pleasant moment - riding horses or ponies. Along the central alley. A free map at the entrance will help you find the animal you need. This means you definitely won't get lost. And if you forget, ask an employee, he will tell you.
The cost of an adult ticket is 600 rubles. Preferential - 300. It is possible to send a donation for the care of animals directly on the website. It doesn't matter how much you give - the main thing is that you help. After all, animals do not pay for food, and we must replace their native nature.
The zoo occupies about 65 hectares, which makes it one of the largest in Russia.
About 790 different species, among which more than 350 are listed in the International Red Book.

So if you haven't been yet, now is the time. The kids will love it. Adults too. Or maybe it is here that you will find that very feeling that is lost in the city: a connection with living nature. There is no need to spend money on tickets to other countries - everything is nearby. In Novosibirsk. On Timiryazev, 711.
Is it worth going? Certainly! The weather may change, but this amazing feeling does not. It remains. And yes, the zoo is open from 8 am to 10 pm. Follow the schedule - after all, every day is like a new twist in history.
