There is a zoo in Albania, which is called the ‘zoo from hell’, and the pictures below will tell you exactly why.
From a malnourished lioness suffering from an eye infection, to a bear cramped in a small cage- every picture from the zoo tells a story.
And every story is heartbreaking.
Thanks to a report by The MailOnline, this was brought to the notice of authorities, who took quick action and asked for temporary closure of the zoo.
Additionally, Blendi Klosi- Albania’s Minister of Tourism and Environment- ordered the animals to be rescued.
However, as per a NY Times report, a conservation official said that ‘the only shortcoming was that the animals did not have enough space in their cages’.
Well, that ‘only’ shortcoming was leading to unimaginable suffering for the animals, so the conservation official needs some introspection.
Looking at the bright side, though, the animals are now free and we sincerely hope that they don’t have to go to that hell of a place, again.
