VivaCell-MTS launches Wi-Fi internet at Yerevan Zoo

VivaCell-MTS announced the launch of Wi-Fi internet at Yerevan Zoo.

From now on, all visitors of the Yerevan Zoo can enjoy fast Wi-Fi internet with up to 10 Mb/s speed for free upload and download.

The Director of the Yerevan Zoo, Ruben Khachatryan, and VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian, took part in the official launch of the Wi-Fi connection.

During the event, an open-air electronic library was accessible in the zoo, and visitors were able to use the public Wi-Fi to obtain information about the wildlife and animals, as well as watch nature photos, videos and films.

The launch of the Wi-Fi connection also insures the full implementation of the animal adoption program. The platinum level of the program (a donation of AMD 100 thousand) will provide the adopters the opportunity to follow their animals via the Internet through a camera placed in the enclosure. Thanks to the Wi-Fi connection provided by VivaCell-MTS, the first camera, set up in the cage of the White Peacock, was switched on during the event.

The connection will soon also give the possibility to offer all visitors an interactive map of the Yerevan Zoo, through which they will be able to find directions and get additional, interesting and useful information about the zoo and its animals, VivaCell-MTS press service reported.
