RANTHAMBORE NATIONAL PARK : Earlier the hunting preserve of the Maharajas
of Jaipur, the Park at Ranthambore was once the scene of royal hunting parties.
Today , it is famous for its Tigers and is one of the best places in the country
to see these majestic predators in the wild. The tiges can be spotted quite
often even during the day, at their normal pursuits- hunting and taking care
of their young. With the strict measures that have been taken for their conservation,
they seem quite
accustomed to human activity and are not disturbed by it. A good time to visit
is between October and April when the nature of the dry deciduous forests makes
sightings common.
Ranthambore has large numbers of sambar , chital and nilgai, Sounders of boar
and an occasional gazelle - the chinkara can be seen , as also the Indian hare,
mongoose and monitor lizards. The lakes and pools at the park are where the
deer congregate and where it is easiest to see the animals. Among the other
local fauna are the leopard, hyena, jackal, jungle cats, sloth bear and marsh
crocodile.
Jacanas, painted stork, black stork and white necked stork are seen along the
