The zoo was opened on June 1, 2000 on a picturesque island located on the Shoshinsky pond at the initiative of the People's Artist of the Mari ASSR Gabdulkhak Gibadullin. With the support of Dail Shagiakhmetov, head of the Medvedevsky district administration and active participation of many enterprises and organizations of the Medvedevsky district. In 2002, an arena was built on the island, where Gabdulhak Gabdullovich showed numbers with trained animals. Unfortunately, in the summer of 2016, after a long illness, he passed away, but we continue the traditions laid down by him now. All these years, the Wildlife Corner was a structural subdivision of the Medvedevsky District Center for Culture and Leisure, and since 2015 it has been transformed into a separate legal entity, and received the name - the municipal autonomous cultural institution "Medvedevsky mini-zoo". In the mini-zoo, work is being carried out to maintain and reproduce a collection of local and exotic animals and birds in order to preserve the gene pool of different species. This year, new offspring of ducks, chickens, turkeys, peacock pigeons, rabbits, squirrels and goats have appeared. In March 2016, a Scottish pony was born at the zoo for the first time. Also, to replenish the collection, pairs of pheasants "Golden" and "Diamond", Carolina ducks, new breeds of rabbits and chickens, a Vietnamese pot-bellied dwarf pig were purchased. The Kazan Zoo and Botanical Garden presented a noose. Exotic animals also include a monkey, raccoon, llamas. Among the predatory animals there are wolves, bears and foxes. In general, the exposition is represented by more than 30 species and breeds of animals and birds. Their total number is over 130 heads. In the spring-summer period, excursions, circus performances with the participation of trained animals are held in the mini-zoo; boating and catamarans, a summer playground with two trampolines for children is being installed. Information booklets about the mini-zoo, calendars and magnets with zoo animals are distributed.

In recent years social media has become deeply integrated in our everyday lives. The concept of social media itself includes several categories: blogs, live journals, forums, chats, dating sites and, of course, social networking sites or SNS. Essentially, they all are platforms for people’s remote communication, i.e. exchange of different types of information: text messages, music, photo and video content. The most popular with the young people are social networking sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vkontakte and so on. On the one hand, a social network is a very convenient tool for a quick message exchange, searching for old friends and making new acquaintances, keeping important information and discussing pressing issues in groups, right in the comfort of one’s home. On the other hand, psychologists and psychiatrists of the world ring alarm bells: social networking addiction too often becomes the cause of serious mental and nervous disorders, such as depression, social isolation, autism, and even suicide attempts of teenagers and young people. To my mind, social networking sites can be both useful and dangerous depending on who and how uses them. And I want to try to analyze their advantages

First and foremost, social networking sites are very convenient for those who need to keep in touch with people living in different cities or different countries. Using such a site you can quickly create a group chat, send necessary files to several people, share photos and videos, or even launch a videoconference. And all this is absolutely free!

Social networks can become a great solution for people with disabilities or those who for some reason have to stay at home all the time. In some situations they can completely substitute a real-life communication and help such people not to feel lonely or socially isolated. Numerous special interest groups let them find friends and interesting dialogue partners.

Sometimes social networking sites help to find really precious and useful information. In different groups people from all over the world discuss various issues, share their personal experiences, provide useful links, write comments and reviews for goods and services. You in turn can ask any question and get answers from different people. Also social networks give a great opportunity to distribute any information within the shortest possible time. Many people today learn news from SNS. If something really important happened, the best way to inform people of this is to post the information in some popular Facebook groups.

Finally, thanks to social networking sites, you will never lose information about your friends and other important people. You don’t need to keep in mind their dates of birth and phone numbers any more. At any moment you can check up this information via your smartphone. You will never lose your favourite films or music as well, because you can save them on your personal page with a single click of a mouse.
