Location

Bardia National Park

Bardia National Park is located in the western lowland and encompasses a total area of 968 square kilometers. The park includes alluvial floodplains created by Karnali River in the west and the pristine ecosystem of Bardia Valley in the northeastern section. The park is reputed for its rich biodiversity. The vegetation here ranges from early successional stage, tall floodplains grassland established on the alluvial floodplain of Karnali, Orai, and Babai river systems, to the climax stage, sal and forest extended on relatively dry flat lands.

The fauna diversity of the park includes 53 species of mammals, including endangered megaherbivores like rhinoceros and elephants, more than 25 species of reptiles, over 400 species of birds, 121 species of fishes, and an unknown diversity of mollusks and arthropods. Species conservation in the park has yielded satisfactory results as a number of mammals such as tigers, elephants, spotted deer, hog deer, smabar, swamp deer have made a remarkable comeback.

A narrow strip of buffer zone covering an area of 327 square kilometers adjoins the park in the West and in the South. More than 100,000 people of diverse ethnicity inhabit the buffer zone. Tharus are the indigenous group and comprise above 60% of the total population. Other ethnic groups in the buffer zone include Brahmin / Kshetri, occupational castes , and the people of Mongoloid origin (Magar, Gurung, Tamang, etc.). Agriculture is the main occupation of buffer zone communities.
