Massacre at the Timisoara Zoo. Six kangaroos were killed by several dogs that entered their habitat.
The keepers found the dead animals and called the dogs, who caught two dogs. The police are looking for the owners to punish them for killing the kangaroos. Be careful, the following are details that can affect you emotionally.
The attack took place, investigators believe, in the middle of the night. The dogs most likely jumped over the fence of the pen where the six dwarf kangaroo animals were.
Călin Călămar, Specialist Inspector of the Timișoara Zoo: „The keepers informed me in the morning when they got to work that they found three dogs inside the Zoo, I told them to check the shelters, they also discovered the kangaroos that were dead, of the three dogs they caught two. One is a German Shepherd and the other is a Rottwailer.
Zoo management kept this incident a secret for 24 hours, waiting for someone to come looking for the dogs, but this did not happen. Animals are not microchipped, so no one knows who they belong to.
Călin Călămar, Specialist Inspector of the Timișoara Zoo: “They are a kind of smaller and normal kangaroos, the dogs are big, even if the shelter is big they will run them. If there is a teacher, he certainly will not go and say that these are my dogs. “
The animals also attacked an emu bird, but it managed to escape.
At the Zoo there is no night keeper to check the health and safety of the animals. There are only two local policemen, who are standing at the entrance, not patrolling, and on the night of the attack they heard nothing.
Surveillance cameras inside the zoo don’t work. Visitors were surprised to learn that all the kangaroos were dead.
If identified, dog owners can be fined. Also at the Timisoara Zoo, a few years ago, two zebras were found dead.
A visitor and two zebras died at the Timisoara zoo
Timisoara Zoo has been described several times as a desolate space, both for visitors and animals.
The sad landscape is shaped by dirt, dead branches that fall down alleys and broken furniture. “What happened to the zoo? Goats have water with worms. They are all pathetic “, say visitors to the Timisoara zoo. The pens are untidy and the animals look sad and sick.
“The animals are quite bad, sad, malnourished, dirty, misery in the pens. Very ugly unfortunately. Unfortunately! Every year it looks worse and worse “, declares visitor last year.
In 2017, a woman died while visiting the zoo after a branch fell on her head during a storm.
In 2013 and then in 2016, the zebras at Timişoara Zoo died in mysterious conditions. In the case of the first zebra, the head of the Department of the Environment, Adrián Bere, was injured while trying to save the animal that was thrown into a pond and drowned.
