An English Author was so enchanted by the beauty of the jungles of Kanha that he made this place the background for his iconic novel – The Jungle Book. You will hear many interesting stories about this park. One of the most interesting ones is the tale of the extinction of an endangered species Barahsingha. There was a time when Barahsingha, a rare deer species, was very close to extinction but the forest authorities didn’t give up and started a successful breeding program to conserve Barahsingha in Kanha National Park. Today this park is very famous for the sizable population of Barahsingha. Kanha National Park is also very popular for tiger sightings. Birdwatchers come here during winters to see various migratory birds. It is also one of the best National Parks for birdwatching in India.
