On Saturday, April 12, a year will pass since the birth of Gaia. The name was chosen and bestowed upon the second offspring of the lowland gorilla in the Dja Reserve pavilion last year by the world-renowned primatologist and conservationist Jane Goodall. Gaia is a resilient young gorilla at just under a year old, who most often plays with her three-month-older sister Mobi. Celebrations at the Dja Reserve will begin on Saturday at 10 a.m., with Gaia receiving her gift at 3 p.m.

THE RAREST DUCKLINGS IN THE WORLD HAVE HATCHED AT PRAGUE ZOO
Prague Zoo has bred one of the rarest water birds on the planet, the Brazilian teal. A total of five chicks are thriving in the breeding facility. This species has hatched here for the first time in the world outside its South American homeland. Its occurrence in the wild is very fragmented – the most well-known isolated population of Brazilian teals in the wild survives in the Serra da Canastra National Park in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. Experts estimate the total number to be less than 250 individuals. If the breeding of these critically endangered fish-eating ducks at Prague Zoo is successful, it will be a historic achievement of global significance.

The phenomenon of new circus: Art that changes the rules
New circus is an artistic phenomenon that has gained immense popularity in recent decades. It transforms traditional circus performances into a complex work of art that combines acrobatics, theater, dance, music, and sometimes even multimedia elements. Unlike the classical circus, you will not find acts with trained animals; instead, it focuses exclusively on human abilities, creativity, and emotions. Performances, which often contain deeper messages in addition to great acrobatics and precise choreography, attract millions of visitors around the world.
