Young animators created a cartoon about the polar bear Terpey at the Moscow 2030 forum.

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Around 200 young participants in the workshops held at the flagship venue of the Moscow Mayor's "My District" program in 50th Anniversary of October Park created an animated film about the polar bear Terpey, a new resident of the Moscow Zoo, which is under the care of the "My District" program. The film was based on the bear's journey from Kazan to Moscow by train. The workshop was part of the "Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030" forum.

"This project is especially dear to us because it tells the true story of Terpey the polar bear—from his rescue in harsh Yakutia to his move to the Moscow Zoo. It's crucial for me that the younger generation, through creativity and kindness, learns the value of protecting rare species. The story of happy Terpey is true proof that care and compassion can change the world for the better," noted Svetlana Akulova, General Director of the Moscow Zoo and President of the Union of Zoos and Aquariums of Russia and the Eurasian Regional Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

From script to finale

The children worked on the cartoon for approximately 120 hours, from writing the plot to the final animation. In total, approximately 1,900 frames were shot. The young animators crafted three main characters and approximately 20 supporting ones from 50 skeins of wool. They also built 11 mock-ups of various locations using foam, cork, cardboard, play dough, paint, and much more.

The project's technical equipment included three computers, three cameras, and over 15 lighting fixtures. This allowed the children to master professional animation filmmaking techniques.

"I loved it so much! I usually watch cartoons on my phone, but here we made a bear and a real movie about him out of special thread, wire, and other things. The character moves just like a real one. Our whole family went to see Terpey at the zoo—he's so big and fluffy! Our cartoon bear turned out just like the real thing. Now I tell all my friends we made a cartoon about Terpey," shared ten-year-old Nikita, a participant in the project.

Based on real events

The children's animation project became part of the educational program of the "Territory of the Future. Moscow 2030" forum, aimed, among other things, at environmental education and raising awareness among the younger generation about wildlife conservation.

Terpei, a polar bear, had a difficult life before finding a home at the Moscow Zoo. As a cub, he was left alone in Yakutia, where he was rescued by a local resident. Terpei then lived in Perm, Rostov-on-Don, and spent several years in temporary care at the Kazan Zoo. In October 2024, the animal traveled by train to the capital, where a spacious enclosure with a pool and snow slide was prepared for him. Specialists are monitoring his condition around the clock.

To observe the Moskvarium's new arrivals, please visit enclosure #35, located in the central part of the exhibit. A ticket is required to enter the aquarium.

Gharial crocodiles have a long, narrow mouth with numerous small, needle-like teeth. They are one of the rarest species on the planet. They are listed as "endangered" on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Special programs for the care and breeding of these rare reptiles in captivity have been developed and implemented worldwide, with the goal of preserving and increasing the gharial population.

One of Moskvarium's key missions is to protect endangered or Red List species. Therefore, the capital's aquarium will make every effort to preserve gharial crocodiles and raise awareness of this issue among its visitors.

The new inhabitants of the Moskvarium are young animals around three years old. Specialists have created the most comfortable conditions for them, as close to their natural habitat as possible.

The reptiles are housed in a spacious enclosure with a pool. To ensure their well-being, the water's hydrochemical balance is optimal and the air temperature is maintained at a constant 27 degrees Celsius. The enclosure also features two heated coastal areas, earthen beds, and shelters. A UV lamp is also installed, essential for the crocodiles' normal functioning. The reptiles are fed a balanced diet of fish and chicken.

Gharial crocodiles have undergone a fascinating evolutionary journey, adapting to several habitats during their development. Their distant ancestors first lived on land, then became marine inhabitants. Modern representatives of the species live exclusively in freshwater.

Today, these amazing crocodiles can be found in Southeast Asia: on the islands of Sumatra, Borneo, Java, and the Malay Peninsula. They prefer calm waters and areas densely covered with aquatic vegetation: freshwater swamps, rivers, and lakes. These reptiles are primarily active at night, hunting by stalking their prey.

Gharial crocodiles feed on a variety of aquatic and terrestrial animals, including fish, reptiles, and arthropods.

Its unique exhibition features 600 species and 12,000 inhabitants. More than 80 aquariums feature rare, protected, and endangered species, including Amazonian arapaimas, shark rays, seahorses, sturgeons, hawksbill turtles, and over 10 species of sharks. The largest inhabitants are cetaceans and pinnipeds, while the smallest are invertebrates native to cold seas and coral reefs.

Visitors to the Moskvarium can not only explore the main exhibition but also participate in a variety of cultural and leisure activities, including interactive exhibitions, unique water shows, lectures in the knowledge center, and performances in the children's theater. The aquarium's top priority is the well-being of its inhabitants. A team of qualified specialists ensures professional care and attention.

Moskvarium actively collaborates with leading research institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences—the A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution, the M.M. Shemyakin and Yu.A. Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, and the All-Russian Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography. Thanks to the combined efforts of the scientific community, rare aquatic species are being preserved.

VDNKh is one of the capital's main attractions. It is a major international exhibition center, a museum city, and a modern venue for education and recreation for residents and tourists. It hosts numerous important cultural, scientific, and economic events, attended by tens of thousands of people. The exhibition grounds cover more than 325 hectares.
