The forests in South India survive mainly along the Western Ghats, a range of high hills that run almost parallel to the west coast. Nagarhole National Park is one of the finest in South India situated on the River Kabini with a rich and varied habitat ideal for wild elephants, the elusive tiger and leopard.
