Flora & Fauna

Jim Corbett National Park is rich in biodiversity. The park’s vegetation consists mainly of sal forests, mixed deciduous forests, bamboo clusters, and grasslands (chaurs). The diverse terrain supports a thriving population of herbivores, which in turn attracts predators like leopards and tigers. Aquatic life is abundant near rivers and lakes, and marsh crocodiles and gharials can be seen basking along the banks. The ecosystem also supports a wide variety of insects, butterflies, and reptiles.
