 Wildlife & Bird Sanctuatries - Dhudhwa

by Anil Benipuri

The grasslands are also ideal terrain for the Indian one horned rhinoceros. In 1984, a number of rhinos were translocated from Assam and Nepal, in an attempt to extend their habitats and to exclude the possibility of wiping out entire populations through disease and epidemics.

Other inhabitants include the sloth bear, jackal, wild pig and the lesser cats - the fishing cat, leopard cat, jungle cat and civet. Dudhwa also has an abundance of birds. Its marshes are home to a range of water birds both local and migratory.

You can combine a visit to Dudhwa with Corbett National Park.
