Sunabeda Wildlife Sanctuary
Sunabeda Wildlife Sanctuary, located in Nuapada district of Odisha near the Chhattisgarh border, covers an area of about 600 square kilometers and was established in 1983. It features diverse habitats including a vast plateau, valleys, gorges, and 11 waterfalls, and is dominated by dry deciduous tropical forests with trees like teak, sisoo, and sandalwood.
The sanctuary serves as an important habitat for species such as tigers, leopards, barasingha (swamp deer), hyenas, gaur, sloth bears, and numerous birds including hill mynas. It forms a crucial wildlife corridor connecting to forests in Chhattisgarh and holds potential for a tiger reserve status, supported by local conservation efforts facing challenges like human encroachment, livestock grazing, and forest fires.
The sanctuary's water sources include the Jonk River and its dam, aiding irrigation and sustaining the ecosystem.
