Introduction

BIRD GROUP

The name of the group, ’Bird Section’, is a bit misleading as the keepers of this group take care also of some mammals. Earlier they only looked after the birds. A couple of years ago the tasks of the keepers were redivided between the different keeper groups. The bird group were made charge of the Mongolian wildhorses... There are seven keepers working in the Bird Group.
