Visit to Katraj Snake Park

Wednesday, May 02, 2007

Few days back, me and Dhiraj visited "Katraj Snake Park". Located in Katraj, this snake park is home to a number of snakes and other reptiles like crocodiles. One can see Snakes of different shapes and sizes in the park. Information about snakes with pictures is displayed in a library within the park. A zoo has also been recently added, making it an attractive tourist place, especially for children.

This snake park is well-known in the for its work towards animals besides its snakes and reptiles. Recently it added a zoo to it as well. Neelimkumar Khaire is the Director of the Snake Park and is himself a snake-lover. He has introduced innovative methods of communication in the park such as providing information about snakes through braille for the blind at the snake park. I also got to interact with Mr. Khaire who provided me information about the snakes and other animals in the rehabilitation center.

Here are snaps of few of the snakes we saw there.
