Watching Tigres

Kanha national tigre park, 22-01-1994. You stay at the only tourist accommodation available just outside the park and can only enter the park with a guide and by landrover, the more people the cheaper it gets. These landrover rides are actually big fun following small dirt tracks that criscross the core area of the park. Large numbers of chital deer, sambar and barasinga, other herbivores are gaur and black bucks. A 104 tigres live in the park as well as 80 leopards are included in the carnovore section. Jackal, dohl, a sort of wild dog, can also be seen, loads of birdlife but no elefants apart from domesticated ones that carry the tourists around the park.
