Welcome to Bannerghatta Biological Park! Here, we maintain a zoo with a variety of birds, reptiles, and mammals in well-kept enclosures. You can enjoy safaris that take you through areas with tigers, lions, bears, and herbivores. We also focus on breeding endangered species. Our Rescue Centers provide a lifelong home for animals rescued from circuses and other places.
Explore the Butterfly Park, join Nature Camps to study flora and fauna, and experience tourism facilities. We ensure the well-being of captive animals with proper feeding and healthcare. Our administrative setup efficiently manages all aspects of the Bannerghatta Biological Park.
