Jharana Jungle Lodge, Tadoba

When you book a jungle safari, what do you expect? Somewhere a tiger walking in the woods and pleasuring you with his regal walk or a tigress playing with her kids near a water reserve? Even a cheetah or leopard showcasing their antics is always thrilling. Most of the time the atmosphere of the jungle creates shrills for people like us living in the city. However, if you found a rare animal in the woods like a white tiger, white lion, black cheetah, or even a black leopard, it would be a treat for tourists.  Recently, Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve was blessed with the visit of a rare black leopard.

Last year also, he was spotted in Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve. A melanistic leopard is a rare species that has a huge amount of melanin in its skin making him almost black. It is believed that around 11% of leopards have this u

Their huge physique, yellow striped body, and royal walk captures everyone around. However, tigers are one of the calmest and solitary animals. Although they are active during the daytime, they are also known to be nocturnal. They are good swimmers and love to stay in water for long hours. Tigers have several species and hybrids have been created over a period of time. Tiger is one of the largest felines among the cat family. Tiger cubs are born blind and they get their eyesight on the sixth or 14 th  day after birth. The average age expectancy of a tiger is around 25 years of age. Tigers also mate with other cats and hence hybrids are formed. They are surely one of the fastest runners as they run for around 60 km per hour to hunt their prey. The group of tigers is called ambush and they prefer to hunt in a group. Tiger does not have

  It is said that nature is your best teacher. It teaches us to give, collate and conserve. Nature has been blessing us with its abundant resources and environment.

However, instead of just amusement, if we widen our arenas about the jungles, then we can get a new perspective on our forests.  Adventurists, birders, wildlife photographers  and even normal tourists have their own agendas. However, if we go to study, respect and understand nature there wh
