Kanha National Park Safari
The Tiger Trip
Details
Trip Summary
Kanha Tiger Reserve, located in central India, makes a wonderful trip
extension to your travels in India, whether in the north or south.
Famously the “jungle” that inspired Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book, it
is a beautiful area comprised of sal and bamboo forest, grasslands and
river habitat. The most prevalent animal is the Chital (or spotted deer)
which can be viewed grazing peacefully on meadows or amongst trees,
often near langur monkeys, who not only dislodge fruit and seeds from
the trees which the chital then eat, but who also provide a look-out for
tiger. Over 100 tigers roam the jungle’s pristine wilderness, with wild dog
and the elusive leopard representing the park’s other main predators.
The park is home to the world’s only population of the barasingha deer,
and the reserve’s authorities have been instrumental in rescuing the
species from imminent extinction. Explore Kanha’s wildlife at close
range by jeep, or on elephant-back for a unique safari experience.
