Ekrem Çetin raises gazelle population in Batman factory garden

Ekrem Çetin, a businessman operating a nut production factory in the Beşiri district of Batman, has successfully increased a gazelle population from three to 20 over a seven year period.

Inspired by nature documentaries, Çetin applied to the General Directorate of Agricultural Enterprises in 2019 and obtained special permission to purchase three gazelles, consisting of two females and one male. Through breeding in a specially maintained habitat within his factory garden, the population has grown to include 10 males and 10 females.

Çetin stated that the animals provide positive energy to himself and his employees. He expressed a long-term ambition to establish a zoo in Batman to serve the region. The gazelles are primarily fed green plants and are kept in a natural environment with dedicated living areas.
