   Wildlife in Assam

KAZIRANGA & NAMDAPHA

Review:

This safari explores two exotic wildlife sanctuaries, each is special and different from one another in terrain as well as wildlife. While Kaziranga is flat with elephant grass and shallow swamps interspersed with large patches of semi-evergreen forest, habitat to one - horned Rhinoceros and wild buffalo. And Namdapha 1807 sq km. rise from 200 Mt. to 4500 Mt. above sea level and the forest ranges from wet evergreen forest at the lower levels through mix deciduous forest temperate alpine forest at the upper reaches, as the terrain varies from low to high, similarly the range of wildlife is diverse. It is the only area with three major predators: The Tiger, The Leopard and The Clouded Leopard. Possibly even snow leopard.
