Krefeld Zoo Germany Hyper lapse Walkthrough

A walkthrough hyperlapse of the Krefeld Zoo in Germany. After the devastating fire in 2019 work is going on to rebuild the new ape house.

You might have heard about the Krefeld Zoo in the news when they had the awful tragedy on New Year's Eve, December 31, 2019. A fire broke out due to Chinese lanterns and 30 animals lost their lives including Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Orangutans, silvery marmosets, white-faced sakis endangered golden-lion tamarins, fruit bats, reptiles and birds. A horrendously sad day that many of us never forget.
The firefighters managed to prevent the flames from spreading from the ape house to the Gorilla garden. This is where Silverback Kidogo had his troop of seven.
You can see videos of his troop here:
