Reviews Of Kohima Zoo

Kohima, Nagaland, India
The Kohima Zoo, often referred to locally as the Mini Zoo, is one of the most uniquely situated zoological parks in India, perched on a steep hillside. This zoo is specifically designed to conserve the rare and endemic fauna of the Eastern Himalayas, providing a habitat that closely mimics the natur al wild environment. The primary attraction of the zoo is the Blyth's Tragopan, the state bird of Nagaland, which is a highly endangered and stunningly colorful pheasant. Unlike traditional zoos with flat enclosures, the Kohima Zoo utilizes the natural contours of the mountain, meaning visitors must hike up and down paved paths to view the animals. This layout provides a more immersive experience, as the animals are often seen amidst thick natural vegetation and rocky outcrops. Another major highlight is the Mithun, the state animal of Nagaland, which is a large semi-domesticated bovine central to Naga culture and tradition. The zoo also houses the Asiatic Black Bear, Golden Langurs, and various species of deer and wild cats indigenous to the region. The atmosphere is serene and quiet, away from the hustle of the main town, offering a peaceful retreat for nature lovers and families. Large enclosures allow the animals significant space to move, which is a commendable aspect of its management despite the "mini" label. Educational signboards are placed throughout the park, providing information about the conservation status of each species. The zoo also serves as a critical rescue and rehabilitation center for injured wildlife found in the nearby forests. For birdwatchers, the surrounding trees are home to many wild avian species that are attracted to the sanctuary's protected environment. The panoramic views of the Kohima city and the distant Japfu Peak from the upper levels of the zoo are spectacular. It is a must-visit for anyone interested in the unique biodiversity of the Northeast.:
