Zoos, Circuses, Safaris: A Gallery of Captivity

[Rishi]

None of the following are my work, copied from a travelogue.
Van-vihar National park, Bhopal- A unique concept.

---

The van-vihar national park is a cross between a zoo and a reserve forest. Spread over 4.45 square kms., it is situated in the heart of Bhopal. Flanked on one side by the Bhopal lake, it is truly picturesque. While tourists are allowed to drive through a designated road, we had the opportunity to drive into the park itself. The animals are kept in their near natural habitat. I'll let the pictures do the talking now....
The first three pictures are of two man-eaters captured and kept within electrified fences. The reason for the precaution.....one of them had almost managed to tunnel out from under the regular enclosure just a few days back.
