Warangal Zoo, Wildlife park in Hanamakonda district, India
Warangal Zoo occupies a sprawling landscaped area with separate sections for different animal groups and their natural habitats. The park houses mammals, birds, and reptiles living in enclosures designed to reflect their regions of origin.
The zoo was established in the 1980s by the local administration as a step toward wildlife protection and public awareness. Over the decades, it has grown into a center for environmental education in the region.
The zoo serves as a gathering place where local families and school groups come to spend time outdoors and learn about animals that live in different regions. It functions as a community space where people develop a connection to wildlife and nature conservation.
The zoo is accessible by local transportation and located near railway stations and bus routes serving the city. Visitors should wear comfortable walking shoes as the park covers considerable ground, and arriving early helps you see animals when they are more active.
The zoo features a dedicated area where butterflies live among plants in an open garden setting rather than in traditional cages. Visitors can walk through this section and watch the insects move freely, offering an experience quite different from the rest of the zoo.
