Islamabad Zoo (Urdu: اسلام آباد چڑیا گھر), previously Marghazar Zoo, was an 82-acre (33 ha) zoo in Islamabad Capital Territory. It was opened in 1978,[1][2] and was under the administration of Capital Development Authority of Pakistan before its closure in December 2020 due to its mistreatment of animals.[3]
In May 2020, the Islamabad High Court ruled to transfer management of the park and its non-human species to the Islamabad Wildlife Management Board and transfer all animals to shelters,[4][2] and the board took administrative control in June 2021. A renovation of the zoo as a conservation centre is being planned.
