Kanha, located in Madhya Pradesh, Central India is one of
India's finest reserves. It inspired Rudyard Kipling's epic,
the Jungle Book. Home to amazing variety of animals in different
habitat, Kanha National Park stands brilliantly in a group
of few reserves of gene pool of Indian Flora 'n' Fauna.
The Kanha forest is a unique experience, as the rich tree
cover interspersed with open grasslands allows for a rich
animal population density similar in scope to the animal rich
National Parks of Africa.
Stretching over 940 sq kms (363 sq miles), Kanha promises
a unique and satisfying experience. Its forests retain a grandeur
of wilderness rarely found elsewhere and is unparalleled with
its variety of mammals and birds. It is one of the most well
maintained National Parks in Asia and a major attraction for
wildlife lovers all over the world. Over the years animals
of Kanha have become bolder and more confident, making the
park excellent for wildlife viewing and photography.
Project Tiger has yielded remarkable results, from around
48 tigers at the beginning of the Project Tiger, Kanha now
boasts around 100 tigers, making it the best place in the
world to see tiger. The Kanha National Park also happens to
be the sole habitat of the rare hardground Barasingha or Swamp
Deer (Cervus durauceli branderi) which has been rescued from
the very brink of extincti.
Overall a great tiger and wildlife rescue.
