the Country’s zoos and aquariums crying in the currently using, because they are not covered by the previous stimulus packages during the coronakrisen. Therefore, they are squeezed financially, while they keep closed.
The final consequence is that dyreparkerne and aquariums must beat the animals to death in order to survive. I currently use the namely, large sums of money to care for the animals, while the onset of peak season failed to materialize.
Saturday minister of culture, Joy Mogensen (S) listened to the distress of zoos and aquariums. She heralds a distinct solution for them.
– When I say that the zoos also requires a separate solution, then it is because they are just stands and says with a very big voice, that they need for security very soon, otherwise they might start to beat the animals to death.
– It has none of us like to get out in. Here I am thinking, we can give a helping hand. We thought you could use the general stimulus packages, but it believes they do not. And when they have a need for a clarification very quickly, it also becomes a separate debate, says Joy Mogensen (S).
The zoo is missing entréindtægter, and because the operation can not be characterized as a fixed expense, they are not included in the original stimulus package for the business.
in Addition, they can zoos and aquariums only send very little staff home, because the animals, of course, must be fed and cared for.

– No stands within a week or 14 days with a decision to kill. But as a company we need to, in a worst act. We have a corporate responsibility in order to avoid bankruptcy.
– We do not have the liquidity crisis over the next 14 days, but is it anymore time, so, we have to take decisions. At some point we have to consider that the open, says Helle Hegelund Knudsen.
wildlife Parks reprocessing usually liquidity during the peak season, there would have to be begun, but now is affected by the coronakrisen.
Helle Hegelund Knudsen airs the idea that parks can be forced to open, because they still lack clear answers on whether they are commanded shutdown.
– A rather simple question is, whether we are commanded to closing in relation to offsets. That we need a clear answer on which box we are in. It is unclear, she says.
