Report Of The Officer-In-Charge Shri Sudarshan Sharma Deputy Conservator of Forests (Wildlife), Zoo, Jaipur Nahargarh Zoological Park is one of the main tourist attraction in Jaipur, the second world heritage city of India. It was opened for public in June, 2016. It has gained a lot of popularity among the locals as well as the visitors from other places. It is the most successful zoological park of Rajasthan in terms of conservation breeding. Many species like tiger, asiatic lion, porcupine, Indian wolf, hyena apart from various antelopes and deer have bred successfully here. The zoological Park has completed one more year of Bio-diversity conservation, zoo management and education. Various public awareness programs were organised during the year like Wildlife week, World Tiger Day, Bio-diversity Day, World Sparrow day, Ozone day and Earth Day. Two day National Birding Fair was organised by us at the beautiful Mansagar lake. A number of bird experts participated in this fair and imparted valuable information and skills of bird watching to the school children and other emerging bird enthusiasts. Our rescue team led by our senior veterinary officer did a commendable job by rescuing a number of wild animals straying out of forest and involved in man- animal conflict, especially the leopards. Quick and effective response by rescue team has paid great dividends in terms of avoiding casualties of humans or animals and instilling the feeling of trust in the people for wildlife wing. 2. History of the Zoo Jaipur zoo was established in the year 1876 by the Ruler of Jaipur State Sawai Ram Singh II.

NATIONAL STUDBOOK OF INDIAN WOLF (CANIS LUPUS PALLIPES) – II EDITION NATIONAL STUDBOOK OF INDIAN WOLF (CANIS LUPUS PALLIPES) – II EDITION FOREWORD Habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation, retaliatory killing coupled with disease threats have rendered Indian wolves prone to extinction. Despite protection measures in recent times free ranging populations continue to show declines; therefore, maintenance of viable ex-situ populations for ensuring their long-term persistence remains imperative. Scientific management that ensures their long-term genetic viability and demographic stability can ensure effective ex-situ conservation of Indian wolves. Pedigree information contained in studbooks forms the basis for this effort.

  • Central Zoo Authority -- List of Rec Zoos.Pmd
    Central Zoo Authority and Indian Zoos: A Current Overview Sally Walker Central Zoo Authority (CZA) (estab. Feb. 1992) is now a dozen years old. The Authority exists at the pleasure of the Central Government, which has reconstituted it four times and will undoubtedly do so again in the immediate future. CZA was set up to tackle many problems, among the most important, the rampant proliferation of zoos without adequate plan or principles, or even financial backing. Many of the then ~ 350 zoos had been set up for political reasons, to satisfy the whims of a Minister or other official and left to deteriorate after the founding function. It is very easy to open a zoo compared to closing one but this task -- closing zoos that could not meet a minimum standard -- was given to the fledgling Authority This was, part of a process, also led by CZA, to provide oversight for zoo management and, after evaluation, to give technical and monetary support and time, so that the zoos could improve. In this process, which is well established today, if the zoos improve sufficiently, they are granted recognition for three years. If they do not improve within a specified time frame they are deemed "derecognised" and must be closed by their state. Only recognised zoo can operate legally in the country. As of this year there are 164 recognised zoos in the country and 90 recently derecognised zoos. Since a few years after the inception of CZA, many other zoos have been derecognised. This article is an update and overview of some of the last year's activities of Central Zoo Authority.

Western European countries developed the modern system of collection of wild animals which was termed as menagerie and later became more popular form of ‘zoological garden’ or ‘zoo’. The coming of colonial British rule in India and its interest in the faunas of the orient led to the formation of zoological gardens in several urban centres of India from the nineteenth century onwards. Public now get entertained by watching different exotic animals from a safe distance without going to forests. The early zoos were mainly based on iron cages with little scope of space for the wild animals. Later on, especially after the Independence, there has been a rapid upsurge of zoos in several parts of India. The design of these zoos are founded with new ideas of broader open air space, concept of park and safari. This paper wish to locate the rise and transformation of zoos of India in a historical time span. KEYWORDS: Menagerie, Zoo, Enclosure, Design, Safari, Zoological Park, Wild Animals INTRODUCTION The anthropocentric bent of history, nowadays, has got its critiques from a tremendous number of historians.
