Lower Secondary students recently visited the “Mali Dunav” Centre for Fisheries and Applied Hydrobiology in Radmilovac. The trip offered a hands-on experience of Danube’s aquatic life and a chance to learn more about local biodiversity and environmental protection.
Students explored various ponds, visited a small aquarium, and saw animals native to the Danube, including fish, swans, herons, geese, and even a rare mandarin duck. They also enjoyed a boat ride, tried fishing, and spent time on a small farm where they interacted with goats, rabbits, a donkey, and even peacocks walking freely around.
During this field trip, I found out about the several species of fish and mammals that are housed in this environment. The tour was intriguing as I not only learned but also had a ton of fun, ranging from a boat ride to petting animals, Mali Dunav has a lot to offer, Year 9 student Nikolai Gusarov wrote in his report.
Once a polluted site, the center was transformed into an ecological oasis, showing students how environmental efforts can make a lasting impact.
