Adopt a cobra for ₹2,000, an elephant for ₹1.75 lakh Bengaluru’s Bannerghatta Biological Park offers animals for adoption for a year Would you like to adopt an Indian cobra for as low as ₹2,000 per annum or an Asiatic elephant ₹1.75 lakh? Bengaluru’s Bannerghatta Biological Park (BBP) has a new programme for people with an interest in conserving wildlife by adopting animals at the zoo. “The animal adoption programme is an opportunity for you to get involved with supporting feed and veterinary care expenses for zoo animals with provision for Income Tax rebate under Section 80G. There are 21 elephants that can be adopted online,” said zoo officials. The BBP has released a list of animals that can be adopted. The zoo, which sees an annual footfall of around 15 lakh persons, has been closed since the middle of March following the lockdown declared in the wake of the COVID19 pandemic. It received a record 23,000 people on a single day on January 1 this year. The animal adoption initiative is part of the BBPs outreach programme as people are not able to visit the zoo due to the lockdown. In other times, visitors to the zoo can sign up to adopt animals, Ms. Singh said.
