Delhi Zoo animals will receive cool treatment. “Fruit ice cubes”, and water sprinkers will be installed for tigers, lions, leopards and jackals to help them beat the heat during the summer season.
From April 1, all the “Summer Action Plan” funds will be carried out for the warmth to ensure comfort for the heat, said Sanjayev Kumar, the director of the zoo.
From the air coolers to the walls and frequent floods to mounted areas, the zoo flowing with shaded and swimming pools will take different measures to keep animals comfortable this summer.
The National Zoo will present a number of summer care measures to ensure the well-being of animals, Sanjen Kumar said.
Sanjeevkumar added that Delhi Zoo has developed a structural program for various animals, ensuring their comfort on top of summer.
The events include continuous flowing water for swimming pools for carnivorous, herbs and reptiles, along with stems and shaded areas to prevent overheating.
In boiler walls, the pools will be removed and shadows, and the sprinklers will be installed for tigers, lions, leopards and jackals. The zoo will also present lighter, summer meals to customize cells and customize the animal diet.
Herbs, including playing dears, Nilga, Blacks and elephants, will receive frequent showers. Similarly, Rhinos will bathe twice every day to keep them cool.
Recently, the capital has recently recorded its hottest day in March, and the mercury reaches 38.9 degrees, according to IMD.
For priorities, the air coolers have been installed in their walls, and every day they are preparing special fruit ice balls to ensure their moisturization and nutrition.
Reptile walls are also cooled with shaded areas and wet ball bags for snakes, say officials.
Meanwhile, the fences of the birds are equipped with side wall curtains, water spraying, and more earthqued to provide a stable supply of cool drinking water. EMUS and ostriches receive regular bathrooms, and such delicate species of foams have been provided with weapons bags, which are stored wet.
Bears are very sensitive to heat, during extreme temperatures, will be maintained in shaded feeding cells. Their cavities are cleaned and charged every day, and they are also given fruit ice cubes to help them moisten them.
In addition to these types, the zoo has installed thermometers in the main walls to monitor temperature fluctuations.
Watermelon, cucumbers and coconut water are seasonal fruits of primates, bears and herbs to provide additional moisturizes.
