Rajasthan plans elephant rescue centre
Rajasthan plans to set up a home for elephants rescued from all over the country.
The centre is expected to come up in an area of about 80 hectares where as many as 50 elephants would be housed, according to the forest department here.
The centre will be run by Help In Suffering, an NGO working for the welfare of animals in Jaipur, a forest department official said.
It will mainly cater to elderly elephants exploited by circus companies. The elephants will be provided a balanced diet and medical facilities.
We will identify land near Kukas dam, around 15 km from Jaipur, for the centre, he said.
After similar complexes for lions and tigers, this would be the third animal hub in the Nahargarh reserves. Fifty lions and tigers are being cared for here.
