The Hindu
The prolonged closure of the park due to lockdowns has led to a severe fund crunch, park authorities said
Among the most prominent spots in the city for wildlife and conservation, the Chennai Snake Park has been hit by prolonged lockdown periods and is in dire financial straits. A public fundraising initiative has been initiated now. Managed by the Chennai Snake Park Trust, which is a non-governmental and non-profit initiative, the park currently houses around 300 animals across 35 species including pythons, Gangetic gharials, crocodiles, iguanas and tortoises. For several residents of the city, a trip to the snake park was a fixed feature either during school or college.More Related News
