Publisher's Synopsis
Animals, such as monkeys, baboons, vultures, owls, wolves, tigers, crocodiles, lions, and many others, are part of the environment of mankind. Their numbers, however, shrink day by day as mankind has occupied all major living lands of the earth. For a good reason, however, some wild and tamed members of the animal kingdom are kept and protected at different zoos in different countries, which are visited by many people to make tourism and traveling meaningful. Furthermore, zoos may be regarded as a good option to prevent the endangered species from extinction (--The modern man can afford such challenge to protect and to save the endangered animals).This volume displays the animals' life in the Yerevan Zoo. Animal images collected, in this 3rd edition, include squirrel monkeys, deers, tortoises, horses, camels, wolf, slender-tailed meerkats, bears, lynx, baboons, vultures, eagle, owl, peafowls, pheasant, elephant, jaguar, lions, and more. Finally, in this volume images of main animals, that are kept in the Yerevan Zoo, are displayed for all those who care about animals and who would like to see what they look like in this part of the world.
