About Chandka Elephant Reserve
Cha ndaka elephant reserve is located in the
Bhubaneshwar. It is only one of its kind in India. The residents of
the reserve are elephants, sambar, bears, wild dogs, pea fowls and
pythons.
Only one of its kinds, the dense and fascinating Chandaka
forest is perfect place for eco-tourism activities. As the elephants
generally venture out at night, a long evening within the reserve, on
one of the watch towers built by the Forest Department close to the
water-holes, is a thrilling experience and one gets the feeling that
one is millions of miles away from civilization.
These majestic animals have made the Chandaka Forest
their home, and can be seen quite frequently. They are however
completely wild, and on occasion become dangerous too.
Fauna :
Apart from
the fabulous elephants, chital, bear, pea-fowl, sambar and numerous
other animals roam about doing their daily business unhampered. The
Forest officials have also spotted pugmarks of cheetahs within the
forest |
