“Adopting one animal will not change the world, but it will change the world for that one animal”
Comprehensive Plan for Animal Adoption
Three decades ago, the scenario of Indian zoos was totally different from what it is today. The Zoological Parks used to be visited as places of recreation. The people didn’t have the desired empathy for the wild animals, and the level of awareness about the role of wildlife in biodiversity was lacking. Since the establishment of the Central Zoo Authority in 1992, Indian zoos have shifted their focus towards wildlife welfare, ex-situ conservation, research, and education. Educational programs for various audiences have significantly increased conservation awareness. To deepen public involvement, the concept of zoo animal adoption emerged, allowing individuals to become part of zoo management and contribute to animal welfare. This initiative fosters a sense of belonging and passion for wildlife.
