Kamla Nehru Prani Sangrahalay, Zoo in Juni Indore Tahsil, India
Kamla Nehru Prani Sangrahalay is a zoological park in Juni Indore Tahsil, India, covering roughly 50 acres with enclosures for native and foreign animals. The grounds divide into sections for big cats such as white tigers, reptiles in a dedicated snake house, and open habitats for herbivores.
The Municipal Corporation of Indore founded the zoological park to protect and study threatened species from the region. The snake house was added later to bring visitors closer to the diversity of local reptiles.
The park honors Kamla Nehru, wife of India's first prime minister, and serves school groups as a learning space for wildlife protection. Visitors see how urban life and conservation efforts meet in central India.
The park opens Tuesday through Sunday in the morning and closes in the early evening, remaining shut on Mondays. Admission covers the main area, with additional entry required for specialty sections like the snake house.
The snake house displays a collection of pythons, cobras, and Russell's vipers native to the region. Guided talks explain how to distinguish venomous from non-venomous species and what role snakes play in the local ecosystem.
