Deputy director of the zoo Eugene Matveev, said: "The tiger cub would be the third in the existing family of Bengal tigers - Chingiz and Roxanne. But we decided to exchange the baby, that was well developed, and get an extremely rare bird, and received unexpectedly from our partners even two. Lammergeier is known that during the hunt it can raise prey weighing 30 kg and carry in free flight. Such a rare specimen of a bird is even a rarity for rich European zoological gardens. I remember that I saw a couple of these birds only in Estonia. So, Chisinau residents and guests of the capital of Moldova will enjoy more this season. "

The Chisinau zoo's collection numbers 1,700 animals and birds, one third of them is listed as endangered.
