Manas
Wildlife Sanctuary
The Manas Reserve, located in the
foothills of the Bhutan hills, far from human habitation, is a world in
itself. The Manas River flowing through the Park demarcates the border
between India and Bhutan. The Park has vast deciduous forests where the
dense cover often cuts out the light. Its wet grasslands are the home of the
rhino, water buffalo, elephant and tiger. Manas is noted for its population
of the rare golden langur - found only in this part of the country. They are
often spotted in the tall trees.
