Feldman EcoPark

Feldman Ecopark is an animal refuge and rehabilitation center located near Kharkiv, Ukraine, founded to provide a sanctuary for animals and support children and adults in recovery through programs like animal-assisted therapy. Devastated by shelling during the 2022 Russian invasion, the park suffered significant damage, leading to the deaths of animals and staff and requiring large-scale evacuations. Despite the destruction, the Ecopark is still in operation, offering psychological relief and vital programs for locals amidst the trauma of war. Learn more at feldman-ecopark.com/en/.
