A pioneer in wildlife conservation
The Itanagar Zoological Park has a long history of notable accomplishments in wildlife conservation, setting it apart as a leader in this field. Being the first zoological park in the northeastern region of India, it has successfully bred and raised clouded leopards in captivity, making significant contributions to their preservation. The reptile house in the park showcases a captivating display of snakes, lizards, and turtles found in the region.
At the nature interpretation centre, you can explore a treasure trove of knowledge and gain insights into the region's biodiversity and conservation efforts. The medicinal plant garden is also a must-visit, where you can discover the healing wonders of a variety of medicinal plants and their traditional uses. There is even a rescue centre maintained under the veterinary supervision of the park to take care of rescued wild animals! After immersing yourself in this wildlife haven, you can indulge in the local delicacies at the park's cafeteria and the gift shop that awaits you with souvenirs to serve as tangible memories of your journey.
