Closeup Wild Tigers on the kill Kanha National Park by Shirishkumar Patil 2

Kanha is situated in the Maikal hills, in the Satpura range of the central Indian highlands, in the State of Madhya Pradesh (22o 17'N, 80o 38'E). The land rises from 450 to 950 metres above sea level, and is drained by tributaries of the Narmada river. Mandla is 65 kms, and Jabalpur 160 kms, from Kanha. There are four main vegetation types - moist deciduous forest, dry deciduous forest, valley meadow, and dadar meadow. The moist deciduous forest, which covers 27% of the Park area, is dominated by sal trees. The forest is broken up into grassy meadows, the result of early slash-and-burn cultivation by Baiga tribals.
