Royal
Bardia National Park, situated in the mid-far Western region, is
the largest and most unspoiled wilderness area in the Terai, covering
an area of 968 sq.km. The park, a sub-tropical jungle, is thickly
forested by sal trees and carpeted with grass, savannah and riverine
vegetation. The north is bordered by the Churia hill range, the
west by the Karnali river, while the Babai river cuts its course
almost through the middle of the park. On the southern fringe of
the park are the villages of the unique and indigenous Tharu people
of Western Nepal. Considered as one of the most picturesque national
parks in Asia, it teems with rich and diverse flora and fauna.
The park is home to more than 30 different mammals, including the
langur and rhesus monkeys, civets, hyenas, wild dogs, sloth bears,
otters, blue bulls, deer and wild boars. It is a regenerated habitat
for endangered animals like the tiger, rhinoceros, wild elephant
( the park harbours the biggest wild tusker in Asia) and black buck,
Gharial and marsh mugger crocodiles the great game fish-masher and
the Gangetic dolphin cavort in the river waters. The unique birds
which number over 350 species include cormorants, egret, storks,
geese, jungle fowls, king-fishers and endangered species such as
the Bengal florican, silver-eared mesia and the saurus crane thus
making the park truly a bird watchers paradise.
Within
the park are several open grasslands (plants) where game viewing
