The exotic Pench Tiger Reserve has an area of 758 Sq. kms. The forest types are
Southern Indian tropical moist deciduous with a mix of tropical dry deciduous teak
here and there. The grasslands at Pench are not as extensive as in Kanha National
Park. The area has number of rivulets many of which are seasonal. The Pench River
which gives the park its name dries by April end leaving a number of scattered pools
which serve as crucial water sources for thirsty wild animals in Pench jungles.
The Pench Reservoir named Totlah Doh dam is the lifeline of the ecosystem of this
nature park which is a major water source during the hot summers.
The prey base especially deer is high in dense forest belt adjoining the Pench River
making it an ideal area to trek tigers. Leopard is in good numbers but inhabits
the buffer zone. With luck a panther can be seen in the core zone of the park. Jungle
cats are common sight in the core and buffer zones but rare Leopard cat, Indian
civets, ratels, and porcupines are less seen as they are nocturnal species.
Pench is one of the most popular tiger parks in the country. Alongside the tiger
live Wild Dogs, Wild Boars, Nilgai, Chital or Spotted Deer, Four-horned Antelope,
Leopards, Langur and Fox. The park is very rich in bird life with over 250 species
like Francolins, Owls, Raptors, Barbets, Ducks, Minivets, Oriole, Waterhen and Kingfishers
can be seen. During winter months the numbers increase as migratory birds arrive.
