Fauna
Felidae
Asiatic lions, Bengal tigers and Indian leopards are kept in separate enclosures and they are viewed by a guided "safari" vehicle.[4] A relatively rare black panther was born here during 2012, and is available for public view as a caged animal.[5]
In 2005, a tigress gave birth to cubs here.[6] On 2 March 2006, four tigers killed a casual laborer who fell down while repairing iron gates.[1] A tigress which strayed into nearby villages was captured and kept in this safari.[7]
Birds
More than 11 different species of birds were kept in cages for display. They include the white pheasant, silver pheasant, red junglefowl, and love bird.[8]
