Zoo Hannover says a fond farewell as a previous animal caretaker makes their final exit
In a touching display of kindness and compassion, the ASB-Wünschewagen Niedersachsen, a part of the Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB), recently granted a special wish to Saskia, a former zoo keeper battling cancer.
Saskia's heartfelt desire was to spend one last holiday by the North Sea and touch the mudflats, but the ASB-Wünschewagen Niedersachsen had another surprise in store for her. They arranged for her to visit the Hannover Zoo, a place that holds a special place in her heart.
Despite her health condition and the pain she experiences, Saskia's determination to visit the Hannover Zoo was unwavering. She was transported to the zoo on a stretcher, wrapped in a starry blanket, and greeted by the warm smiles of Sister Barbara, Holger, Steffi, and Daniel.
The visit brought Saskia immense joy and a sense of gratitude. She spent a significant amount of time watching her beloved gorillas and lions, her eyes sparkling with happiness. The Hannover Zoo staff, moved by Saskia's story, went out of their way to make her day special.
The ASB-Wünschewagen Niedersachsen, staffed by volunteer paramedics, safely transported Saskia to the zoo, providing her with medical and emotional care during this memorable day.
