Narcondam Island Wildlife Sanctuary
Narcondam Island Wildlife Sanctuary is a small volcanic island located in the northern part of the Andaman Sea and is part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Covering an area of approximately 6.8 square kilometers, the island features a rugged terrain with a central peak, Mount Narcondam, rising to about 706 meters, making it the second tallest point in the archipelago.
The sanctuary is famous for its endemic Narcondam Hornbill, a vulnerable species found only on this island, along with various unique flora and fauna adapted to its isolated environment. The island's dense evergreen forests, rich marine life including coral reefs, and minimal human interference contribute to its ecological importance.
