Papa Lenin has survived in PermThe sad zoo of Perm
The Zoo of Perm is situated conveniently along the street that leads from the ship-station to the city and there were only two reasons for me to go there :
1)The Zoo was built in the area of the former monastery and I was hoping to be able to get some unusual photos from that side of the park, but unfortunately that was impossible !
It was quite sad for me to see, how these poor animals have to spend the rest of their lifes, animals that are used to the temperatures of Africa, obviously living also in the winter in small,open cages...
At least the children have a great playground there, see my last picture !
2)Another reason to go to the Zoo was that I had received several bills of 1000 rubles at the ATM-machine and owed 100 rubles to a lady onboard, and paying the entrance-fee of 80 rubles for the zoo gave me a lot of smaller bills.
