Zoo Hannover bids farewell to its former animal care specialist
In a heartwarming and poignant moment, Saskia, a former zookeeper at the Hannover Zoo, recently visited the zoo one last time. Accompanied by Sister Barbara, Holger, Steffi, and Daniel, Saskia carefully maneuvered over the uneven paths, her eyes scanning the grounds like old maps, suggesting a deep familiarity with the zoo.
Saskia's visit was a special arrangement by the ASB Wish Mobile of Lower Saxony, an initiative by the Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB) aimed at fulfilling wishes for people with terminal illnesses. Though specific details about Saskia's visit are not widely reported, the ASB Wish Mobile is known for its special arranged experiences and emotional visits, which often leave people with goosebumps.
Despite her pain, Saskia felt a sense of quiet gratitude for the special day at the Hannover Zoo. She lingered especially long by the gorillas and lions, observing the powerful animals silently, indicating a peaceful and contemplative visit. The visit ended with the ASB companions presenting Saskia with a small, soft plush lion.
