After a successful vote for the name of the ferret in Joinville, another region’s mayor’s office decided to rely on the public to “baptize” the animals. This is the city hall of Araquari, which wants to choose the name of a pair of ostriches that live in the Refúgio dos Pássaros park.

According to the municipality, the young birds arrived at the site two months ago and are already a hit with visitors. Therefore, Fundema (Municipal Environmental Fund) wants to name the animals.
Possible options: Chica and Chico, Florentina and Florencio, Zeze and Zaza. Voting is open until next Sunday (11) and can be entered through the Araquari City Hall website.
The Refúgio dos Pássaros Park is a 200,000 square meter nature reserve located in the center of Araquari. It has 5 km of hiking trails, two ponds, recreation areas, sports fields, parking for 350 cars and toilets.
