Shaurya Shekhar
“It was an excellent initiative by Indore zoo. We would love to take part in such competition in future. I loved this competition as it was informative, interesting and educative. I knew some answers like bee hive, but it was tough to guess scientific names of animals with their specific traits. I want to learn more about them now.”
