The Kabini National Park derives its name from river Kabini, which meanders joyfully through the southern reaches of Karnataka. This forest has a two-fold attraction – the beautiful Kabini River itself and the thick, diverse forest. The Kabini River is best explored on a boat, as you are sure to see countless Spotted Deer, Sambar, Bisons and of course, herds of Elephants crossing the river. Crocodiles and Otters are quite common as are birds like the Pied Kingfisher, Osprey, Black-necked Stork, Grey-headed Fish Eagle, River Terns and Painted Storks.
One of the best places in India to see the Black Panther, Kabini also harbors a healthy population of the Royal Bengal Tiger. The jeep ride is equally exciting! Be prepared to feast your eyes upon packs of Dhole or Wild Dogs hunt down their prey. These animals are indeed very ruthless… they hunt only in packs and start eating their prey even before killing it completely. But, well that’s the law of nature…! Keep your fingers crossed and you may perhaps spot a Leopard sitting on a tree with its tail dangling right above your jeep.
