Volunteers renovate the home of collared peccaries in Stara Zagora

The Stara Zagora Zoo is organizing its fourth volunteer campaign. The main efforts of the volunteers on May 23 will be aimed at improving the habitat of the collared peccaries (Pecari tajacu) and the area around them – we learn from a post on the zoo’s Facebook page.

The animals look like small wild boars. On their back, near the tail, the collared peccary has a specific musk gland, which is why they are sometimes called “musk pig”.

The organizers invite residents and guests of the city to get involved in order to create a cleaner and more welcoming environment for both the animals and visitors.
