布拉格动物园在欧洲热浪来袭之际，采取措施为园内动物降温。1气温预计将达到38摄氏度，1动物园利用数吨冰块帮助包括北极熊艾琉特和格雷戈尔在内的动物消暑。1这两只北极熊在16年前于纽伦堡出生，1目前在动物园的室外围栏中享受冰块带来的清凉。1
动物园发言人Filip Mašek表示："熊通过冰块降温，同时这也是丰富它们在动物园生活的一种方式。"1这项降温措施已成为常规做法，动物园从两年前开始提供冰块以应对气候变化和极端高温日益频繁的问题。1受益于这一措施的动物还包括水獭、大象和鹦鹉。1捷克共和国曾在6月28日创造过历史最高温纪录，当时温度达到41.9摄氏度。1
As a sweltering heat wave grips Europe, Prague Zoo is deploying tons of ice cubes to help its animals beat the extreme temperatures.1 The polar bears Eluet and Gregor are among the beneficiaries, enjoying the frozen blocks in their outdoor enclosure as temperatures are forecast to reach 38 degrees Celsius (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit).1
The zoo has been providing ice to its animals for the past two years as part of its response to increasingly severe heat events and climate change.1 Zoo spokesperson Filip Mašek explained that "the bears cool off with it and at the same time it's an enrichment of their life in the zoo."1 The cooling measure extends beyond the polar bears; otters, elephants, and parrots also benefit from the ice provision.1 The two polar bears were born in Nuremberg 16 years ago.1 The current heat wave comes as the Czech Republic's all-time temperature record stands at 41.9 degrees Celsius (107.4 degrees Fahrenheit), set on June 28.1
