National Zoological Park is the ideal place for scientific research in the field of animal and applied sciences, and due to this every year many research scholars come to undertake various research projects here in field, maintaining stud books and animals history cards, studying of nutrition, chemical analysis, pathology and parasitology of endangered animals, and other research activities. The Research Section of NZP carries out the job of in-house data collection and basic research on various aspects of animals in captivity in the zoo, as well.
