Sakkarbaug Zoological Park - History details

Founded in 1863 in Junagadh by the Nawabs, Sakkarbaug is Gujarat’s oldest zoo, known for its Asiatic lion conservation role. Set on the Sakkarbaug plains near Girnar foothills, it spans leafy enclosures, a natural history museum, and breeding centres. Interesting fact: it supplied lions for global breeding programs. Special dates: Wildlife Week (1–7 Oct) hosts outreach events.
