It is close to Nilgiri forest towards north and Mayurbhanj forest in northwest. Sukhuapata and Gagua hills separate Kuldiha from Similipal. Through Gadasahi forests on the south west, Kuldiha have a disjointed link with Baula RF of Hadgarh reservoir. Rising from 169m above sea level, some prominent hills that form the landscape include Asta Pahar (423m) occupying a Central position; Devgiri Pahar (682m) in south; Ranga matia (629m) in north; Kolia Parbat (495m) in east. Kuldiha fits into a tourism circuit encompassing Chandipur, Remuna, Nilagiri and Panchalingeswar. Kuldiha presents typical mixture of Peninsular (coastal) Sal forests and moist mixed deciduous forests of deccan peninsula. Small rivers emerging from the Kuldiha landscape are Tangana, Kamala, Basudhar, Uastal Nala. The forested areas of the region feed to Budhabalanga through tributaries Sono in North and Gangahar in south. There are two reservoirs in Kuldiha. The Rissia reservoir in northwest is over river Tangana and Sindhua reservoir in southeast is over Uastal nala. These to reservoirs have helped the crop and climate regime of the region. Elephants that characterize the landscape are commonly seen in Kuldiha. The reservoirs attract the elephants round the year. Forests along the migration route of elephants from Kuldiha to Similipal and Hadagarh through the forests of Gogua, Ketakijhari, Balihudi and Kupari are fragmented but offers scope for revival. From the year 2004, tiger has been reported from Kuldiha. This could have been possible because of establishment of forest linkage with Similipal. The Forest ecosystem of Kuldiha provides an ideal habitat for the largest herbivore, the Gaur as well as the burrowing Pangolin. There is a good population of Giant squirrel indicating that the forest canopy of Kuldiha is in good state. There are Rest houses and Rest sheds at strategic locations in and around the periphery of the sanctuary to [email protected] / [email protected] / 98303-66550 Page 21 Eastern Heavens India – A Professionally Managed Eco Tourism Organisation provide accommodation facility to the visiting tourists. The famous temple of Lord Jagannath at Nilagiri is visited by the visitors / tourists from far and wide. Simlipal Tiger Reserve Similipal is known as the land of the roar of the tiger and the trumpet of the elephant. Dense forest, rugged hilly terrain and wild animals combine to shape its wilderness. Certainly, a place for nature-sensitive visitors who can rough it out. The Similipal hill ranges have connectivity with Satkoshia and Nato reserve forests in the Mayurbhanj district and Baula reserve forest in Keonjhar district. Recent trends suggest the establishment of contiguity of habitat supporting movement of tiger up to Kuldiha Sanctuary in Balasore district. Floral and faunal composition have some similarities with elements from Western ghats and North east India. Similipal holds 7% flowering plants, 8% orchids, 7% reptiles, 20% birds and 11% mammals found in India. Semi-evergreen and moist nature of the tropical forest have resulted in luxuriant vegetation offering ideal shelter for wild animals. Among the important waterfalls of Similipal are the Joranda (150m) and Barehipani (400m). Similipal retains some of the best Sal forests of India and Sal constitutes about 50% of the total forest habitat of Similipal. The landscape is beautifully studded with numerous small and high hills densely covered with vegetation. The highest hill Khairiberu is 1168m and next to it is Meghasini, standing at 1163m. The network of several perennial streams and rivers that interlace the deep folds of Similipal forests remain wet even during the peak summer in April-May. Come May-June, a large number of Orchids bloom, exotically coloured and wondrously shelved. Similipal holds 94 species of these epiphytes. Three endemic orchids of Similipal occur in Meghasini and Jenabil area. Similipal holds the largest tiger population any where in its distributional range within the State. Similipal has been declared as a Tiger Reserve since 1973. Semi-evergreen and moist nature of the tropical forests along with a number of perennial streams offer ideal shelter to a population of about 500 elephants in Similipal. Sambar, Barking Deer and Wild boat constitute the major prey base for tiger in Similipal. The Orchidarium at Gudugudia is one of the best demonstration of ex-situ and in-situ approaches in conservation of flora of Similipal. A number of Rest houses, Rest sheds and Camp houses have been situated at Strategic locations in and around the Similipal, for providing accommodation facilities to the tourists as well as staff on field duty. People of Similipal continue to live with aboriginal status. They live in the forests and depend on the forest. The Khadia tribe are the best examples of people leading a life style of ‘gatherness”. Bhitarkonika Forest Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary (BKWS) was created during the year 1975 to preserve the rich biodiversity and the pristine beauty of nature in the Brahmani-Baitarani (Dhamra) deltaic region of coastal Orissa. The core area of the Sanctuary was later designated as Bhitarkanika National Park (BKNP) in 1988. Bhitarkanika has been designated a Ramsar site (Wetland of international importance), the 2nd in the state, in the year 2002. The area has been proposed to be included in the list of World Heritage Sites. Located in Kendrapara District, the Sanctuary and National Park offer numerous opportunities to celebrate and conserve nature. Bhitarkanika river system is ruled by a few giant Saltwater crocodiles. This basking crocodile is one of such large crocodiles of about 20 ft. length. The area is criscrossed by numerous creeks and creek-lets and tidal river, and rivulets. The nesting behaviour of mother Saltwater crocodile is different from other two Indian Crocodilian species. She prepares a mound nest in a secluded place by collecting available nesting material which includes aquatic fern species (Acrostischum aureum), Hental (Phonix paludosa), etc. The nesting female crocodile actively guards her nests for about 75 days, until the young crocodiles hatch out for moving into the creeks. The dominant vegetation type is mangrove. The un-disturbed river bank is the favoured basking spot for Saltwater crocodiles. Bhitarkanika mangrove forests provide an abode for the deadly poisonous snake, King cobra. [email protected] / [email protected] / 98303-66550 Page 22 Eastern Heavens India – A Professionally Managed Eco Tourism Organisation This is one of the few such habitats in the country where a good population of King cobras are seen. White Bellied Sea eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster), an endangered bird, is an indicator species of this healthy wetland ecosystem. Come monsoon: water birds comprising of eleven species throng together at a place known as “Bagagahan”, close to the Suhajore creek. The total nesting bird population including the new born ones is about 50,000. The majority of nesting birds include Open billed storks. The choice of nesting trees vary from species to species, the most preferred one is Heriteria species that provides a good canopy cover. The Spotted deer have adjusted well to the climatic conditions of this ecosystem. Their population is on the increasing trend, and a good population is visible around the Crocodile Research Centre at Dangmal and also along the river banks. Morning and evening hours are the best times to observe the spotted deers preferably along the river banks. Spotted deers can also be seen in good numbers near the FRH at Dangmal during night hours.
