IGZP Welcomes Animals from Birsa Zoo

The Indira Gandhi Zoological Park in Visakhapatnam recently welcomed new animals from the Bhagwan Birsa Biological Park in Ranchi, Jharkhand.

This exchange included a Himalayan black bear, a gharial, spotted doves, and a silver pheasant.

In return, the Visakhapatnam zoo sent several other animals to Ranchi.

The new animals will be displayed to visitors after a quarantine period.

This exchange helps both zoos to have more diverse animal collections, making them more interesting for visitors.

The Himalayan black bear is especially important because it will help the zoo have a pair of bears, which is good for their breeding program.
