First of all, this is my first thread so I don't know where to post this. So, if this is in the wrong place. Please let me know. Open to criticism. The species lists are my favorite things about this website because the zoo data in websites/ Wikipedia isn't that reliable. So, I'm going to do this myself. Anyways, the zoo is not well organized but there is some sorting. I'm just going to make this easy and organize all of this myself ( Or at least try to ) Gharial Pond - Gharial Native Herbivore Section - Chital Deer - Black Buck - Indian Muntjac ( Referred to as "Barking Deer") - Nilgai (Referred to as "Blue Buck") - Sambar Deer - Himalayan Goral - Wild Boar - Indian Hog Deer - Four-Horned Antelope Tiger Section - Rhesus Macaque ( Some are out of enclosures) - Nepal Grey Langurs - Bengal Tiger Pond - Goose ( Some kind of Chinese Goose?) - Great White Pelican Exhibits to the Side of the Pond - Common Hippopotamus - Greater One-Horned Rhinoceros Monkeys and Primates - Vervet Monkey ( But the scientific name of a Green Monkey is Given) - Mona Monkey - Common Patas Monkey - Chimpanzee - Siamang - Wild Water Buffalo - Asian Elephant Other Carnivores Section - Asiatic Black Bear - Sloth Bear - Golden Jackal - Indian Leopard ( Referred to as "Common Leopard" ) - Himalayan Palm Civet - Common Palm Civet - Jungle Cat - Leopard Cat - Clouded Leopard ( They have an exhibit for it, but I don't think they'd displayed it yet ) - Indian Crested Porcupines ( Including albino/leucistic variations) - Red Panda Ratites Section - Common Ostrich - Emu Aviaries - Dusky Eagle Owl - Eurasian Eagle Owl - Sarus Crane - Ruddy Shelduck - Indian Pond Heron - Indian Peafowl - Himalayan Monal - Domestic Pigeons like Fantails ( Referred to as "Wild"/"Hill" Pigeons) - Guinea Fowl - Turkey - Common Quail - Common Emerald Dove - Black-Headed Ibis - Lady Amherst's Pheasant - Common Pheasant - Golden Pheasant - Silver Pheasant - Nepalese Kalij Pheasant - Reeve's Pheasant - Oriental Pied Hornbill - Cockatiel - Blue and Gold Macaw - Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo - Chukar Partridge - Rosy-Faced Lovebird - Yellow-Collared Lovebird - Spotted Munia - Java Finch - Rose-Ringed Parrot - Alexandrine Parrot - Lesser Adjutant - Major Mitchells Cockatoo - Himalayan Griffon - Black Kite Besides the Aviaries - Indian Palm Squirrel Reptile Area - Indian Rock Python - Monocled Cobra ( Referred to as "Common Cobra") - Pond Turtle - Indian Roofed Turtle - Elongated Tortoise -Guinea Pig Aquaria - Alligator Gar - (A Bunch of Unspecified fish) There you go! I'm not sure who would need this but well, if you ever wondered what a not-so-developed zoo in Nepal is like. Here, enjoy ! ( Open to suggestions and criticism. Please teach me how to do this )
Thank you for opening this thema, appreciated. It migth come handy for others in future if somebody might be deciding if to visit this place during its Nepal trip. And congratulation for your first thread. The species you mention as Pond Turtle - you mean Emys orbicularis (European pond turtle) or Geoclemys hamiltonii (Spotted pond turtle)?
I visited this zoo in 2009 and it’s always fun to be remembered, so thanks and well done. The four-horned antilope stand out, as I can’t remember seeing them in 2009 and they are extremely rare in captivity. Wonder where they got them from…
I didn't see them in my last visit either. But, I think they do have them. As for where they got them from. I think they got them from Banke National Park where they said they were rescued.
