On November 2, the Odessa Zoo celebrated a memorable event - the "Pumpkin Festival".

That day, the zoo's area transformed into a vibrant festive location. Many visitors, both children and adults, arrived in various costumes.

Thanks to the free face painting artists, guests were immersed in a world of fairy tale characters.

Everyone who attended learned about the origins of the festival and participated in fun games and contests.

Those interested could join exciting workshops on making bat decorations and stickers. Additionally, there were opportunities for fun photos in a police car or on a motorcycle.

Following the tradition of the festival, all the children received candies. At the end of the event, guests enjoyed watching the wolves being fed, as they eagerly devoured the meat served in pumpkins.

The Odessa Zoo expresses its gratitude to Lyudmila Nasarzhivska, Tetiana Trufanova, the "New Life" Charity Fund, the Serafim Sarovsky Children's Fund, the "Caritas Odessa UGCC" Charity Fund, and representatives of the Patrol Police of the Odessa region for their assistance in organizing the festival.
