Mysuru: Good Zoos are conservation agencies as they not only provide a critical haven for endangered species but also a unique environment to learn both from and about animals. In order to share these learnings with other Zoos across India, a two-day National Conference for Zoo Directors began at Hotel Radisson Blu Plaza here this morning.
Over 57 delegates including directors and representatives from 25 States are attending the conference to utilise critical information on Zoo maintenance and its allied topics including conservation of wildlife through captive breeding, rescue and rehabilitation and research and educational programmes. The crux of the conference is improving the relationship between people and wildlife and conservation.
