Marjan (Dari: مرجان; c. 1976 – January 25, 2002) was the most famous resident of Kabul Zoo. Marjan, which in Persian means coral, was born in West Germany in 1976 and was given as a gift to Kabul Zoo in 1978 by the Cologne Zoo. He arrived in the Afghan capital and, soon afterwards, a lioness by the name of Chucha (چوچه) joined him.

  • Marjan est un lion détenu par le zoo de Kaboul et mort de vieillesse en 2002 à l’âge de vingt-cinq ans. Mutilé par une grenade pendant la guerre civile en Afghanistan le lundi 27 mars 1995, il était devenu aveugle. Ayant survécu à de nombreuses guerres et périodes sombres, il est un symbole afghan des conflits qui se sont abattus sur le peuple afghan, et de sa survie aux dits conflits : une statue en bronze à son effigie est installée à l'entrée du parc.

  • Marjan (Dari: مرجان; c. 1976 – January 25, 2002) was the most famous resident of Kabul Zoo. Marjan, which in Persian means coral, was born in West Germany in 1976 and was given as a gift to Kabul Zoo in 1978 by the Cologne Zoo. He arrived in the Afghan capital and, soon afterwards, a lioness by the name of Chucha (چوچه) joined him. The lion witnessed Afghanistan's turbulent history, from the communist coup, the Soviet occupation, the state of warlordism, and the hardline Taliban regime. During the 1990s civil war, the state of total chaos enveloped Kabul Zoo in the middle of a battlefield. The zoo was shelled on many occasions, even destroying its medical supply facility, leaving zoo personnel unable to help Marjan. He is seen as a symbol of survival and a desire for peace by the Afghan people. (en)
