Wild animals and birds should be sourced from different areas and kept in the new Zoo Park. This apart, urban forests should be developed extensively, he said during a meeting with officials here on Friday.
Referring to Anant Ambani’s Vantara, an animal shelter, spread over 3000 acres in Jamnagar, the Chief Minister said industrialists and organizations, which come forward with such initiatives should be invited. He also instructed the officials to utilize the 200 acres of government lands at Ananthagiri for development of health tourism. There was also discussion on setting up a nature wellness center on the lines of the Jindal Naturecure Institute at Bengaluru.
