Seeing a tiger in the wild is an exceptional experience, but India has so much more; wolves and rhino, elephants and leopard, panda, 50% of the world’s wild bear species and fifteen species of wild cat and successful conservation stories. 

I’ve lived in Kanha National Park and visited many other national parks, not all, after-all there are 101 national parks and 553 wildlife sanctuaries. I’ve worked alongside some of India’s best wildlife experts and hung out with a brilliant bunch of up and coming naturalists. More recently, I visited Gujarat in search of wolf and ended up seeing five new to me species including Desert Fox, Indian Fox, Hyena, Asiatic Lion and happily, the wolf. 

These experiences have opened my eyes to the plethora of extraordinary natural heritage that India has.  This collection of safaris, one for every month of the year, is not exhaustive but was designed to showcase this diversity, I hope you enjoy the journey…..
