  • The owners of Nama Zoo in the north of Gaza City, home to wild animals and predatory birds, are deploying unremitting efforts to protect and keep alive three cubs that a lioness gave birth to Aug. 12.
  • Also, lionesses in captivity are starving amid the difficulty of securing food in the besieged enclave.
  • Out of six parks that closed due to bankruptcy and difficulty of breeding animals, only two wild animal parks are still open in the Gaza Strip — Rafah Zoo in southern Gaza and Nama Zoo in the Saftawi district of Gaza City.
