Bandipur wildlife sanctuary

Bandipur Wildlife Sanctuary is one of the most fascinating wild life centers. Established in 1931 by the Rulers of Mysore, this park is nestled in the foothills of the Nilgiri. As you penetrate deep into the forests through well laid out roads, you can almost hear the mute conversations between the animals and trees, They say that the flora and fauna exist in perfect harmony. And it is because of this that the spot here was chosen as a center for the "Project Tiger".

Of course, there is lot, lot more to discover. Peafowl, partridges, quail, hornbill, giant squirrel, dhole (wild dog), elephants, sambar, barking deer...... an end less variety of wildlife flourish here. And the trees sheltering them are more beautiful, Teak, rosewood, honne, mathi, bamboo and sandal. You can take a safari of elephant back to make your visit memorable. The best time to Visit is June to October.
