Fort Worth Zoo Hatches Record Gharials | Dallas News

Fort Worth Zoo celebrates a major conservation win with the hatching of eight Indian gharials—their largest group yet—and marks the fourth consecutive year of successful breeding for this critically endangered species. These massive crocodilians, with fewer than 1,000 adults left in the wild, are now entering their rapid growth phase, signaling healthy development. Though kept behind the scenes for now, visitors can still see adult and juvenile gharials on display, while zoo staff continue their vital work helping save this species from extinction.
