The Sofia Zoo proudly announced a record number of animals born in 2024.

"Our wolf pack grew by nine wolf pups. We welcomed a baby zebra, kudu antelopes and several giraffe calves. We also had additions from the primates, the Asian small-clawed otters, a young addax antelope, but the most precious are the two newborn lynx cubs," said director Dobromir Borislavov in an interview with Bulgarian National Radio.

He added that the zoo was also home to rescued wild animals and birds, injured in accidents or kept illegally by city residents.
