Sevastopol Zoo
Date opened	2012
Location	Biryuleva St, 34, Sevastopol, Ukraine

The zoo was founded in 2012 by Remigiyus Vrady (Russian: Ремигиюс Врадий),^[a] enthusiast in selection and breeding of animals, incumbent director of the zoo. The zoo collection was constantly growing, replenished by exchange with other zoos and purchase of animals from the kennels.

The zoo was located nearby "Kolya Pishchenko Street" station of the bus routes 109 and 20, just a few stops away from the Black Sea branch of the Moscow State University, the "Sevastopol" stadium, "Lukomorie" ecological park and the memorial complex "Malakhov Kurgan".^[1]

Since the zoo was located in the residential area, in 2021 it was demanded to be closed by the decision of the Nakhimov District Court of Sevastopol.^[2][3][4]
