Vantara Jamnagar Zoo: When Will It Open to the Public? Wildlife Centre Fees, Website, Area, and Project Cost

Located in the hugely relied Jamnagar refinery complex in Gujarat, Vantara is a groundbreaking wildlife conservation project unveiled by Mukesh Ambani, the youngest Anant Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries. The 3,000-acre safe haven, Forest Star, will transform animal rescue and rehabilitation worldwide. Here is a detailed exploration of Vantara, from its launch plan to facilities and project information.

Launch and public access

Vantara officially opened its doors on February 26, 2024, but it has not yet been opened to the public. Anant Ambani said he will open the facility to visitors as soon as possible and turn it into a state-of-the-art conservation program that not only houses animals, but also provides the public with information on wildlife conservation.

Facilities and functions

Vantara has world-class facilities that simulate the natural environment of its residents. Center function:

  • Dedicated Elephant Facilities: Created a 600-acre property for elephants with huge elephant jacuzzi to treat arthritis, as well as a dedicated elephant hospital with a high pressure oxygen chamber and laser machine.
  • State-of-the-art healthcare: a 100,000 square foot hospital and medical research center with exquisite facilities such as MRI, X-ray, ICU, CT, CT scans and surgical video conferencing.
  • The shell of the scientific project: The well-designed animal shell includes a spa pool and several bodies of water.
  • Center for Research and Academic: Partnerships with world-renowned wildlife experts and organizations form the core of Vantara’s purpose.

Region and project details

  • Area: Vantara covers 3,000 acres and will be the largest zoo and rehabilitation center in the world.
  • Project Cost: Although there is no specific information about the cost of the project, the project is backed by the Reliance Industries and Reliance Foundation, which implies a significant investment in infrastructure and operations.
  • Animal Population: More than 2,000 animals from 43 species, such as elephants, leopards, lions, tigers and reptiles, have been rescued and placed in Vantara.

Wildlife Center Fees

Since Vantara has not been opened to the public yet, no visitor charges have been disclosed. However, once opened, it will likely provide educational journeys and experiences that encourage wildlife conservation.

Project Vision

Vantara’s vision goes beyond the zoo. It is a joint development of the animal care infrastructure for the Indian Zoo in conjunction with the Indian Zoo Authority (Zoo Authority). Under the philosophical challenge of “Jeev Seva” (animal care), Anant Ambani sees Vantara as a mission to save severely endangered species and restore vital habitats.

Vantara is a breakthrough in wildlife conservation, providing a complete solution for animal rescue and rehabilitation. It soon opened to the public and it promises not only a zoo, but an integrated education and conservation center.
