NAMDHAPA NATIONAL PARK
Namdhapa
National Park is situated in Arunachal Pradesh and famous
for the extremely elusive snow and the clouded leopard.
The inhabitants of the park which could be listed over
there are the gaur or mithun, elephant, Himalayan black
bear, takin, the wild goat peculiar to the Patkoi range,
musk deer, slow loris, binturong and the red panda. Several
primate species like the Assamese macaque, pig-tailed
macaque, stump-tailed macaque and the hoolock gibbon can
be found in the area. Three major rivers drain this area.
This Namdhapa park is also the tiger reserve under Project
Tiger. The difficulty in reaching the park or inaccessibility
of a major portion of the Park has helped in preserving
the pristine quality of the region. |
