This project was started to unite the Northern Zoos for joint salvation of common problems of keeping a zoo in the North and in perspective to establish an animal exchange. The project unites large regional-scale zoos that are able to keep a variety of animals including rare and endangered species. Maintaining and supporting those animals often is too complicated and expensive for the smaller zoos, so international cooperation in this field appears as necessary for their conservation.
