The private Phoenix Centre in Central Russia receives injured wild animals from all across the country. What started as a school zoo corner with an owl today is a well-known shelter for wolves, elks, foxes, birds and even a bear. Now the wild ranks are to be joined by dozens of endangered monkeys, seized by Russian border police. How will the Phoenix open its doors to the newcomers so they can join the family?
