SHOCKING: Snippets on the bhadra wildlife reserve | Mind Blowing Facts

How the sanctuary came to be

Bhadra Wildlife Reserve was formally declared a sanctuary on September 6, 1974, making it the 25th Tiger Reserve in India. Karnataka has five tiger reserves: Bandipura, Bhadra, Nagarahole, Dandeli-Anshi and Biligiriranga Tiger Reserve. The sanctuary is unique considering its landscape. It has dry-deciduous, moist-deciduous, shola, and semi-evergreen patches. It is situated in the midst of the Western Ghats regions of Chikkamagaluru, N.R. Pura, the Tarikere taluks of Chikkamgaluru district, and Bhadravathi taluk of Shivamogga district.
