Central Zoo at Jawalakhel reopens

Lalitpur, July 17

The Central Zoo has been reopened to the general public from today. The zoo, located at Jawalakhel in Lalitpur, was closed from June 19 after bird flu was confirmed in crows, vultures, ducks and other birds on the zoo premises. The central zoo has been reopened after the ‘environmental samples’ of birds tested negative for the bird flu virus.
