00:00Our task is to receive the animal from the other side.
00:09We might have a lot of problems.
00:11Good luck to everyone today, and let us go.
00:19At the moment I'm preparing the anesthesia for the lions.
00:21I have to be very careful.
00:51This monkey lost two females and two babies during this war.
01:51He is 20 years old, and he witnessed everything that happened here.
02:20500 meters from here is the place of Gaddafi.
02:24In my opinion, he deserves a chance.
02:27Let's do it.
02:28Okay, we'll do it.
02:29We'll do our best.

02:59It was classified as one of the baddest zoos in the world by some media, due to the presentation

03:30All the world is fighting there.
03:31You have the Russians, the Americans, Hezbollah, Syrians, Turkey, you have the Kurds.
03:37ISIS is very difficult and sad to see such a wonderful country suffer.

03:58To bring one cage outside, it is impossible.
04:00So to bring wild animals, and it was a long, long way.
04:18We start our journey to freedom.
04:19It's not finished.
04:20But we have to hurry because it's dark, and it's very risky to stay here now.
04:28We have them, the bus, yeah, we have them.
