On Zoo Lovers’ Day, let’s know more about India’s first zoo the ArignarAnna Zoological Park in Chennai.
Genesis: Madras Zoo in 1855.
Prime Mover: Dr. Edward Green Balfour, the then director of the Government Central Museum at Egmore, Madras.
Locale: I came into being on the museum premises. A year later, I was home to over 300 animals, including mammals, birds and reptiles.
Remodelled: In 1861, I was transferred to the Madras Corporation and shifted to People’s Park near Madras Central Railway Station at Park Town. I now had had 116 acres at my disposal.
