New zoomix lions would be born soon, sadly. The male was chemically neutered for some time.
No reliable zoo institutions in Russia need lions, as well as brown bears & wolves.

New polar bear exhibit under construction, intended to house a pair

Опубликован проект нового вольера для белых медведей в Екатеринбургском зоопарке

 

[Elephas Maximus]

It's still a concrete madness, not up to international standards. Virtually no polar bear exhibits in Russia have natural substrate.
The zoo has no success in breeding this species (cubs usually crushed by stupid hand-reared female).
