About
Bannerghatta National Park is a unique region of ecological importance as it’s situated on the northern terminal point of Mysuru Elephant Reserve. The Park plays a major role in the conservation of rich floral, faunal diversity, sequester carbon, and sustains regional hydrology.
The main objective of the zoo is ex-situ conservation and augment the depleting population of the endangered species. At present over 2300 animals belonging to 103 species are being protected in a naturalistic environment and provided with veterinary care.
As a part of the Education and outreach activity under the Chinnara Mrugalaya Darshan program, over 1500 students from Government schools were inspired by providing a guided tour at the zoo on conservation of natural resources for maintaining ecological balance.
It also showcases the linkage between the survival of species and the protection of natural habitat. Adoption of animals is also available.
