Proposed merge with List of protected areas of India[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Both have the same coverage. Better a prose article with embedded lists than a stand-alone list. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 06:03, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Animal or Wildlife sanctuary[edit]

Is it Animal sanctuary or Wildlife sanctuary? I think it's the latter per the definition given in the respective article, the former doesn't seem to be strictly government designated. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 19:32, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Zoos[edit]

I don't think List of zoos in India belongs here as it isn't defined as a protected area by the government. At least couldn't get my hands on any source talking about it. Ugog Nizdast (talk) 19:33, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
