| The Bhamragarh Wildlife Sanctuary, located in the Chandrapur District of Maharashtra, is a prime location for spotting several wild animals, many of which are endangered. Covering an area of about 105 sq. kilometres, the vegetation at the Bhamragarh Wildlife Sanctuary consists primarily of moist deciduous mix forests. Enjoy the beauty and the thrill of the jungle as you find yourself surrounded by the luscious flora and fauna of the sanctuary. Some of the most common trees found in the area are Jamun, Bamboo, Bel, Kusum, among several others. Known for its varied wildlife population, don’t be surprised if you look upon a leopard, jungle fowl, wild boar, flying squirrel, barking deer or a sloth bear at occasional spots in the sanctuary. One can even find wetlands in the protected area. Notable among them are Pamalgautam and Parlkota rivers, which runs through the protected area. An interesting point about the Sanctuary is that the population of the area in and around Bharmragarh is mainly tribal. The people who live here mostly belong to the Gond and Madia tribe and lead a lifestyle that is primitive in every sense of the word, with high dependency on the forest for their sustenance. The best time to visit the place is between February and May. The rainy season is between June to September. Easily accessible, the Bhamragarh Wildlife Sanctuary is a popular tourist destination, for its splendid beauty and the rustic Gond and Madia tribe, which easily intrigue tourists. |
