Animals housed <strong>for</strong> conservation breeding programmes, rescued animals, injured/sick<br />

animals or those being quarantined need not be displayed to visitors. Hence moated or<br />

otherwise expensive enclosures are not required. Such enclosures should be designed safe,<br />

meeting the animal’s biological and functional need and should be user friendly. Hence<br />

they can be of chain link mesh of appropriate dimension covered or open air depending on<br />

the species to be housed. Use of other type of barriers should also be explosed. The use of<br />

steel should be minimized.<br />
