Rangpur Zoo

Former President Ershad, a Rangpur native, was responsible for many additions to Rangpur. He donated land for a zoo with a large park in the center of town. The zoo has a variety of animals, mostly in small British-era style cages. The zoo does have a large aviary, a small monkey cage and an endangered Bengal tiger, in addition to a rhinoceros, lions, a leopard, peacocks, alligators, turtles, spotted deer, and many other animals.
