When wolves break out of their cage, it's not just a problem for the animals - it's a safety question for everyone. The animal protection association Anima Mundi is demanding an urgent inspection and the closure of the Skopje zoo, after white wolves escaped their enclosure about a week ago. While they were out, the animals killed several kangaroos and emus.

Anima Mundi is calling for an independent inspection of every cage, fence and safety system, along with an independent investigation into the escape, the deaths of the animals, and accountability for the failures. On top of that, they want a moratorium on breeding and importing new animals until the legal and professional standards are met.

The zoo, meanwhile, says nothing. No public statement, no explanation - just silence, which in situations like this rings louder than any statement. "If this is how the animals were kept, the citizens are in danger too" - that's the message left hanging in the air. Because a cage a wolf can escape from isn't a cage - it's an illusion of safety.

The Skopje zoo is a place where families bring their children, expecting everything to be under control. The wolves' escape, with casualties among the other animals, shatters that assumption. Anima Mundi's question is legitimate - if the system failed once, who guarantees it won't again? The silence of the authorities isn't an answer; it's part of the problem.
