Zoo Hannover bids a permanent farewell to its former animal caretaker
In a heartwarming display of compassion and fulfilment of a last wish, Saskia, a former trainee zookeeper from Erlebnis-Zoo Hannover in the 1970s, recently visited the zoo as a special guest [2][3]. Accompanied by Sister Barbara, Holger, Steffi, and Daniel, Saskia seemed to relish every moment of her visit, smiling more with each meter she covered in the zoo.
The ASB (Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund) Wish Vehicle of Lower Saxony made it possible for Saskia, who is currently battling cancer, to visit the Hannover Zoo one last time. As the organisation that helps fulfil special wishes for seriously ill people, the ASB Wish Vehicle has earned praise from many Facebook users for their good heart and heartwarming work [1].
During her visit, Saskia took in the scents, exotic sounds, and life around and in the enclosures, spending a long time watching the gorillas and lions. One user wrote that the work of the ASB Wish Vehicle gives them goosebumps, while another called it special.
The group carefully maneuvered Saskia over the uneven zoo paths, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey for the former zookeeper. Saskia was particularly amazed at how much everything had changed over time at the Hannover Zoo.
For those who know someone whose last wish the "Wish Vehicle" could fulfill, an online wish request form is available. More information about the ASB Wish Vehicle of Lower Saxony and their work can be found on their website.
As Saskia observed the powerful animals quietly, a kind of quiet gratitude seemed to fill the air. This visit was more than just a trip to the zoo; it was a journey back in time, a chance to reconnect with memories, and a testament to the power of making dreams come true, even in the face of adversity.
