The one-year-old badger Dobri is the newest resident in Pavlikeni’s Zoo. He was given to the zoo by a hunter from the village of Kamen near Veliko Tarnovo, who raised him in his home. That’s why Dobri is tame and very friendly to all visitors – big and small. He likes to eat fruit, corn, eggs, small vertebrates, insects and more.
