The fire burned in one of the apes for the monkeys this morning, the second of January.. Staff and fire brigades were present at the time of the fire, but the monkeys could not be saved. Veterinarians ascertained the death of monkeys from dirty smoke. Zoologists explain the behavior of monkeys is very simple, the animals were very frightened by the fire, since in the natural environment, they usually do not collide with it. Patas monkeys are the rarest species of tropical animals, their population is reduced every year because of the actions of poachers.
The rest of the animals did not suffer. Rescuers establish the cause of the fire.
As reported in the "URA-Inform", recently during a fire in the London zoo died a rare species of pipe-toothed with the Slav name Misha.
