Tadoba National Park (116.55 Sq. Kms.) and Andhari wildlife sanctuary (508.85 Sq. Kms.) together form the Tadoba-Andhari Tiger Reserve
(625.40 Sq. Kms.) Tadoba National Park is the oldest national park of the State of Maharahtra and since 1993, a Project Tiger Reserve.
It derives its name from the local God, "Taru".

The legend goes that the village chief "Taru" was killed in an epic fight with the tiger. He is worshipped by all the local villagers as the deity of "Tadoba". It is a heaven for wildlife enthusiasts and is a rich, dry, deciduous forest, a great place to walk and enjoy nature. The mesmerizing trails of Tadoba could be a treasured experience of a lifetime. Tadoba has been referred to as the 'Jewel of Vidarbha'.


This splendid museum of flora and fauna holds more than thousand species of birds, animals, insects and other life forms. Apart from the  tiger, Chitals, Sambars, Barking Deers, Chausingas, Neel Gais, Sloth Bears, Indian Gaurs, Wild Dogs, Wild Boars and Leopards are other inhabitants of this beautiful wildlife sanctuary.


Cheetals, Sambars, Neelgais are commonly seen grazing  on roadsides and banks of rivers & reservoirs. Jackals can be seen in search of food anywhere in the park .
