HRH PRINCESS KATARINA PROVIDES INCUBATOR
FOR BELGRADE ZOO

Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Katarina today delivered to Belgrade Zoo an incubator she obtained through her own efforts.

The incubator was obtained in Switzerland and was designed to keep newly born humans alive. Belgrade Zoo was in need for such an instrument for many years. Mr. Bojović, General Manager, talked with Princess Katarina about this a few weeks ago when she visited the Zoo with her family. This prompted Her Royal Highness to get in touch with her friends around the world, who soon helped her obtain and deliver the incubator. This instrument will enable the Zoo to keep and rear even rare animal species that require special care similar to that required by newly born humans.

Mr. Vuk Bojović, Belgrade Zoo’s General Manager, expressed his gratitude to Princess Katarina for this generous gesture. He said he was pleasantly surprised how quickly the Princess had provided something they needed for years and pointed out that such an instrument would be welcomed by many hospitals.
