Conservation Education

Humankind must learn to understand that the life of an animal is in no way less precious than our own.” “There may be days when I can’t help an animal in need, but the day will never come that I won’t try.” “Wildlife in the world can only be protected by the love of compassionate hearts in the world!”

Conservation Education

It is very important component and objective of the zoo park to impart awareness through Conservation Education. One of the biggest challenges of Zoo education is the large, diverse audience with different levels of interest and learning styles. People inspired by the interaction with zoo animals to act in a sustainable manner would be the ones who would be able to make their difference to the future for wildlife.

Zoo Park firmly believes in its vital importance to make every visitor being recognize the responsibility to preserve nature which is combined developed by wild fauna and flora there by the environment and ecological balances are maintained for future generations. Special theme weeks were developed often in conjunction with international animal awareness days to support visitors and students learning and audience engagement. Zoo education is by its very nature interactive and most effective when live.

However we have identified the need for providing thousands of zoo visitors with an educative experience by live interpretation, animal talks and demonstration, guided trails and activities with the help of our rangers and some volunteer guides.

We continued to develop supplemental materials and activities for teachers to practice in the zoo’s knowledge Centre (Bioscope) to present to students before, during, and after Zoo visits.

A full-fledged Auditorium supported with complete audio-visual aid is available for carrying out regular program on Zoo education with facility for film show.
