The White Lion cub which was fed by PM Modi was born at the Centre after his mother was rescued and brought to Vantara for care.
The Caracals which were once in abundance in India are now becoming a rare sight. In Vantara, Caracals are bred under a breeding program in captivity for their preservations and are released into the wild later.
PM Modi visited the MRI room at the hospital and witnessed an Asiatic Lion undergoing an MRI. He also visited the Operation Theatre where a Leopard was going through a life saving surgery after being hit by a car on the highway and brought here after rescue.
The rescued animals at the centre are kept in places which closely mirror their natural habitat. Some of the key conservation initiatives undertaken at the Centre include Asiatic Lion, Snow Leopard, One-Horned Rhinoceros, among others.

The one-horned rhino calf was orphaned as her mother died at the facility.
He also saw a large Python, unique two-headed snake, two-headed Turtle, Tapir, Leopard cubs which were left in an agricultural field and later spotted by villagers and rescued, Giant otter, Bongo (antelope), Seals. He saw elephants in their jacuzzi.
The hydrotherapy pools support recovery of elephants suffering from arthritis and foot problems, and improve their mobility. He also saw the workings of the elephant hospital, which is the largest such hospital in the world.
He also released parrots which had been rescued at the Centre. PM Modi also interacted with doctors, supporting staff and workers who are managing various facilities at the Centre.
