List of Animals Found in Chitwan National Park

Chitwan National Park offers safari enthusiasts an experience they won't soon forget. Situated in South Central Nepal, it boasts an astounding collection of mammal species ranging from rhinoceroses and Bengal tigers. However, visiting this preserve requires careful preparation; to make the most out of their visit.

Nepal's Terai national park, famed for its biodiversity. Dotted with dense forest and tall grasses as well as an array of flowers such as fig trees, eucalyptus trees, rhododendron plants and tree ferns in higher areas - while below this region lay rosewood and rhino apple trees among various shrubs such as hill glory bower and grey downy balsam plants - you'll be sure to discover an impressively varied environment here! It was Nepal's inaugural national park.

Chitwan National Park is home to more than 68 mammal species, such as the Bengal tiger that dominates its food chain, as well as leopards (spotted and clouded), wild boar, sambar deer and sloth bears - and more than 700 bird, reptile, amphibian and insect species! In addition to these incredible mammals are numerous birds, reptiles and insects living here.

Chitwan's most noteworthy draw is undoubtedly seeing one of its majestic felines: tigers! Though rarer than you might imagine, these felines can often be heard breathing deep within its lush forests by hearing rustles in their bushes or the sound of their breathing snouts. Even without seeing one, however, Chitwan still stands as an amazing experience full of wildlife and nature untouched by man.
