Recycling mobile phones, in addition to the already mentioned, also reduces the amount of electronic waste, which can release toxic substances into nature when decomposing in landfills. Last but not least, Zoo Prague receives 10 CZK from Remobil and another 10 CZK from Asekol for each mobile phone returned, which goes to the fundraising account Helping Them Survive. The funds are then used for the protection of lowland gorillas in Cameroon, where Zoo Prague has been running the Wandering Bus project for the fourteenth year.
On the occasion of the Friday event, the gorillas at Zoo Prague will receive gifts. At 10 a.m., the family group with young ones in the Dja Reserve pavilion will share new enrichment, and at 3 p.m., the male group residing in the Méfou Center will be delighted. The accompanying program in the African section of the Dja Reserve will also show interested parties the recycling of mobile phones in practice, while children will be entertained by educational themed play stations.
