Cheetah named Byron finds new home in Kharkiv Zoo

The Feldman Ecopark is going to give the faster predator of the planet – cheetah – to the Kharkiv Zoo. The ceremonial handing of the animal will take place on April 24. The event is the part of the program of the ICF “Oleksandr Feldman Foundation” and the Feldman Ecopark directed at preservation of rare animal species.

The cheetah named Byron is 2.5 years old. The predator is absolutely healthy, and has undergone the medical examination, vaccination, antiparasitic treatment and the other necessary procedures. According to the words of its ‘guardians,’ the workers of the Feldman Ecopark, Byron behaves as a big cat – purrs, likes caress and demands attention. They are sure that they give their spotted pet to good and caring hands.

“We have effective cooperation of many years with the Kharkiv Zoo. It has already become a comfortable home for many animals, which grew in the Ecopark. We continue this good tradition. Moreover, we are not going to forget our pet: during these difficult times, we will take it under our patronage and provide it with all the necessary things,” Ukrainian MP and the famous patron Oleksandr Feldman told.

It should be reminded that the handsome cheetah is not the first animal given to the Kharkiv Zoo by the Feldman Ecopark. Earlier, it was Tendy elephant loved by all children, African lions, red deer, Highland cattle, alpaca, and kiang. Last September, hamadryas baboons also moved to the Kharkiv Zoo for the ‘permanent residence.’
