The
Kankaria zoo got two new guests on Friday: Shreya, an Asiatic lioness,
and a white Bengal tigress who is still to be named. The animals, both
aged around three-and-ahalf years, have been brought from Rajkot zoo as
part of Central Zoo Authority’s exchange project. Kankaria zoo has given
74 birds and reptiles including four Indian rock pythons, two Indian
cobras, four rosy pelicans to the Rajkot zoo. Zoo superintendent RK
Sahoosaid, “We have a pair of Asiatic lions (Ambar and Janki) and a pair
of tigers (Pratap and Ananya). We will breed the new tigress with
Pratap as he is a white gene carrier. We will also breed Ambar with
Shreya for lion cubs.”
