Privacy & safety

Your mic starts only after permission. Nearby voices fade with distance. Browser connections encrypt audio; the game server does not receive or record it. A configured TURN service may relay encrypted packets, and participants can still record what they hear. See the privacy policy and terms.

Per-person mute affects only what you hear. Reports are limited and counted once per reporter. Multiple unique reports suspend voice and text chat for that server session.

One of India's oldest zoos (1857), in a wooded park with a lake beside the Napier Museum. Moated enclosures, not cages: the white tiger, lions, the Indian rhino, lion-tailed macaques, the newly arrived zebras, pelicans on the lake and a reptile house.

Adult ticket 20 ⭐, valid one hour with re-entry. Please never feed the animals yourself; offer the keeper's fodder at the deer meadow rail instead. Paid in stars ⭐; the zoo is condensed.
