No matter what you say but in last ten years things have changed in the jungle.

Sal Blossom

Gaur

Gaur population in Bandhavgarh has gone just double to what was brought in here from Kanha. Now they are more than 100.
These Gaur have spread in Tala and Magadhi range of Bandhavgarh.
Often they are seen near Bhadrashila waterhole in Magadhi this month.
A herd of about 14 Gaur moves in Tala range Mirchhani area.

They do not have enough undergrowth to browse in Tala range but new Sal leaves provide them some good browsing.
