Known to have some of the best forest tracks, Tadoba has tropical dry deciduous vegetation with beautiful Sal and Teak trees and is one of the largest tiger reserves in this part of the country. The reserve is surrounded by heavily forested hills on two sides and the Tadoba Lake on another side. The hills give way to deep valleys, gorgeous meadows and bamboo thickets. The park has one of the highest tiger populations and is a popular destination for many tiger lovers. With a good number of breeding tiger females and cubs, this destination is one of the best places for some great photography this season.
The leopard population is well evolved to an urban forest surrounded by the historic Jaipur city on all sides. The evolutionary traits like social behavior can be well documented on camera where it is not uncommon to see females living in small groups with their current siblings and old litters. The jungle has its own charm in all the seasons be it the harsh summers, the monsoon rains or the chilly winters.
