Jim Corbett National
Park is located in Terai, the foothills of the Himalayas in the
Nainital district of Uttaranchal. This is the first wildlife reserve of
India, extending over an area of more than 500 sq km.
The forest reserve is
named after Jim Corbett, the legendary hunter-turned-conservationist.
Corbett, a middle-level officer of Scottish origin, had rid the Kumaon
and Garhwal regions of man-eating tigers and leopards. During his last
days in British India, Corbett transformed into a conservationist and
worked for the betterment of Indian wildlife.
The tourist season in Corbett begins in November every year and closes
in June.
Places Of Interest :
Spotting Flora and Fauna
It is thrilling to watch the mysteries of wildlife unfold. The onset of
March is best suited for animal viewing. Among thick covers of sal
trees, unabated growth of lantana bushes, and dense long grass one can
spot elusive tigers (Corbett has the highest density of Tigers in
the country), leopards, elephant herds, jungle cats, caracal, wild
boars, bears, wild dogs, jackals, spotted deer and hog deer. Among
reptiles crocodiles, rock pythons, vipers, cobras, and kraits inhabit
the park.
The first two-three months
of the tourist season are ideal for bird watching. During this season,
one can spot over 500 species of winged creatures and birdlife. A wide
variety of wild trees, bushes and shrubs also populate the Park.
The Ramganga River flows
through the entire length of the Park and little forest streams and
rivulets tumble through the ravines. The Ramganga is rich in the
magnificent Mahaseer-- a fine sporting fish.
