    ANIMALS DIE OF COLD
    [12:31 pm] 15 January, 2008

    Although Gyumri branch of the State Museum of Nature
    is gasificated, it has not been heated since the day
    if its foundation. Some animals live in the employees'
    or the director's houses during the winter months. The
    Museum is hardly surviving owing to the employees.

    The thermometer is installed right in the hall where
    the unique samples of nature continue their existence.
    Pigeons and guinea-pigs, living in the Museum, may be
    registered in the Red Book, as frost-resistant
    animals, since only they have managed to survive in
    such conditions.

    Fish live in more or less better conditions, since the
    necessary temperature of the aquarium is maintained by
    electric energy. But there were many cases when the
    director had to take the fish to his home, since the
    Museum did not have electric energy.

    Food for the animals is bought by the employees. The
    most frost-resistant animals in the Museum are
    pigeons, guinea-pigs and fish. Parrots and canaries
    live in the director's house.

    Gyumri branch of the State Museum of Nature was
    founded 16 years ago and is located in the building of
    sport-cultural center in Gyumri. The Yerevan mother
    Museum pays only the salaries of the employees and
    electric energy expenses. Visits to the Museum are
    free.
