Kanha's sal and bamboo forests, rolling grasslands and meandering streams stretch over 940 sq km in dramatic natural splendour. This is original Kipling country, of which he wrote so vividly in his Jungle Book. The same abundance of wildlife species exists today in Kanha National Park, which forms the core of the Kanha Tiger Reserve created in 1974 under Project Tiger. The park is the only habitat of the rare hardground barasingha (Cervus Duvaceli Branderi).
By a special statute in 1955, Kanha National Park came into being. Since then, a series of stringent conservation programmes for the protection of the park's flora and fauna has given Kanha its deserved reputation for being one of the finest and best administered National Parks in Asia, an irresistible attraction for all wildlife lovers and a true haven for its animal and avian population.
PHOTOGRAPHIC OF TIGER
Have you ever dreamed of having the opportunity to photograph a Tiger on the prowl, a Malabar pied hornbill feeding its young ones, the Tiger cubs jumping to catch the elephant's tail, the leopard relaxing on a tree top, or the Tiger chasing a herd of spotted dear.
