Dudhwa Wildlife Park
Dudhwa Tiger Reserve has two core areas- Dudhwa National Park and Kishanpur
Wildlife Sanctuary. These are 15 km apart, with agricultural land in between.
Dudhwa National Park is situated on the Indo-Nepal border in the Lakhimpur-Kheri
district in Uttar Pradesh. The Mohana river flowing along the Indo-Nepal border
constitutes the northern boundary of the Park whilst the southern boundary is
formed by the river Suheli. The Kishanpur Sanctuary lies in the Lakhimpur-Kheri
and Shahajahanpur districts in Uttar Pradesh.
The area of the Park is a vast alluvial plain, the doab of the Mohana and Suheli
rivers, interspersed with numerous rivulets, lakes and pools. The rich and extremely
fertile Indo-Gangetic plains support a luxuriant growth of forests and diversity
of fauna.
