The Pelicans — From an Italian Travelling Circus

Eight pelicans were rescued from an Italian travelling circus and found a new permanent home at Odsherred Zoo Rescue. Circus life had not provided them with the conditions they needed.

At Rescue Zoo, the pelicans have access to spacious facilities with water areas where they can exhibit their natural behaviour. They are part of the diverse animal population of approximately 600 animals.

The rescue of the pelicans is an example of our international collaboration. Exotic animals in distress know no borders, and Odsherred Zoo Rescue stands ready to help animals from across Europe.
