KAZIRANGA
NATIONAL PARK
Located on the banks
of the mighty Brahmaputra River, Kaziranga covers an
area of approximately 430 sq kms with its swamps and tall thickets of
elephant grass making it the ideal habitat for the Indian one-horned rhino.
Due to limitless poaching of this prehistoric survivor, the park was declared
a sanctuary in 1940.
The vast open country
makes Kaziranga very accessible and wildlife viewing fairly pleasurable.
Here one can leave in the early hours of the dawn for an elephant-back-ride.
The elephants are trained by authorized and trained mahouts who
guide visitors through the park. One could see wild elephant
herds roaming around or rhinos browse past visitors unconcernedly.
Since Kaziranga is
easily accessible, its provides a chance to see animals in the wild at
such close quarters, thus making a trip to this National Park a very rewarding
experience.
