“The clearest way into the universe is through a forest
wilderness”- great words of John Muir echoes in the mind as one pave the way
through the dense thickets of Manas National Park. Setted in the Eastern
Himalayan Foothills where the enchanting Manas River carrying the fresh drafts
of glacier waters, the park is a doorway into the extraordinary world of Indian
Wildlife.
The beautiful melange of the deciduous forests and alluvial
grasslands have managed to create a secure habitat for some of the critically
endangered species on this planet. It is one of the major reasons why this
designated wildlife sanctuary has turned into the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Besides being identified as a significant turf of Bengal
Tigers, the wildlife sanctuaries have gathered enormous admiration for guarding
one of the last habitats of Clouded leopards. An interesting trail in the jungle
might lead you to this secretive and rare cat who prefers to live alone and
hidden in the dense groves of trees.
Native to the Indian Subcontinent, Water Buffalo is one
handsome species of the Bovini tribe mostly residing in the riverine of ManasNational Park. In Assam, these Buffalos are nicknamed as the tractors of the
east because of they have buttressed Humanity survival through their plowing
and transporting people throughout North East. They spend much of their day
submerged in the muddy waters and use their wide-splayed hoofed feet to move in
the swamps and wetlands.
One-horned Rhinos, Bengal Tigers, Clouded Leopards, Water
Buffalos, Capped Langur, Great Indian Hornbill, Pallas’s Fish Eagle, Bengal
Floricans, Indian Roller, Assam Roofed Turtle, Assam Rabbit, Golden Langur,
Jungle Owl, Spotted Owlet, Black Kite, Spot-billed Pelican are some of the rare
and endangered species that will hook eyes in sheer astonishment while
navigating through broadleaf forest of Kaziranga National Park and riverine
ecosystem of Manas National Park.
