The Kazan Zoological and Botanical Garden (Russian: Казанский зооботанический сад; Tatar: Казан зооботаник бакчасы, romanized: Qazan zoobotanik baqçası) sometimes called the Kazan Zoo, is a mixed garden in Kazan, Russia. It displays over 1,000 and 160 species of plants and animals, respectively. As of 2014, the garden was reconstructed and additional spaces were inserted.[1] In 1996, the garden joined the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria.[2]
