Inquiry Ordered into Giant Zoo in Gujarat Founded by Son of Asia's Richest Person
August 27, 2025
|The Guardian
India's supreme court has ordered an investigation into a vast private zoo founded by the son of Asia's richest person over allegations of illegal wildlife imports and financial misconduct.
Home to a reported 200 lions, 250 leopards and 900 crocodiles, Vantara, in western Gujarat, describes itself as the "world's biggest wild animal rescue centre". It is run by Anant Ambani, a son of Mukesh Ambani, the chair of Reliance Industries.
Vantara was among venues used for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's lavish wedding celebrations last year, where celebrities were asked to wear "jungle fever" outfits.
Despite a visit from India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, who praised it as "truly commendable", the 1,200-hectare (3,000-acre) site is closed to the public and has been criticised by wildlife campaigners over how the more than 150,000 animals kept there are treated.
