Zakynthos is a very small Greek island, only 25 km long. which is located in the Ionian Sea. The tiny size and the fact that in 1953 a strong earthquake destroyed almost all historical buildings scare away many tourists who fear that there is nothing to do and nothing to see in Zakynthos. It's not.

There is a zoo on Zakynthos. Many tourists think that since the island is small and rural, then in the zoo there is only a cat, a couple of chickens and a turkey. Well, there is a cat and a turkey. And then there are raccoons, peacocks, turtles, African pigs, donkeys and, most importantly, deer. And this whole company is not in cages, but walks around you. (Except raccoons).

Raccoons are so raccoons that they sit in a large mesh cage. But they can be stroked and fed. There is a man standing nearby, who pours special food in the palm of everyone for free. You cannot feed them other food.


The buzz is that you can stroke and squeeze them all. Some beasts walked with me out of boredom until the very exit.

And there are not many things that must be done in life. One of them is to stroke the deer's nose. I can’t describe the feeling that you experience at the same time. And that you are good at stroking dozens of noses. Don't rush anywhere and enjoy. And then you stroke the deer's nose.

The ticket is inexpensive. There are downsides. Heat. Put on your hats. You do not need to take water with you. There, everyone at the entrance is given a free bottle of cold water.

And there is danger. The Horned One may try to rip off your wife's skirt and cuckold you. But he can be kicked in the horns.
