Along the north from Panaji on the
road to Belgaum, is a sanctuary that covers 240-sq-kms. Thick forest
clad the slopes of the Western Ghats that is rich in wildlife and a
paradise for bird watchers.
Up in the lush foothills of the
Western Ghats, Bondla is good place to see Sambhar and Wild Boar. It is
smallest of the Goan Wildlife Sanctuaries. Its area is 8-sq-kms but
easiest one to reach. Situated 55-km from Panajim and 38-km from Margoa,
the sanctuary includes a Botanical Garden, fenced Deer Park and Zoo,
which is better than most, with reasonably spacious enclosures.
The Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary, 10-km
southeast of Chaudi, was established in 1969 to protect a remote and
vulnerable area of forest lining the Goa- Karnataka border. Encompassing
86-sq-kms of mixed deciduous woodland, Cotigao is a peaceful and scenic
park that makes a pleasant day trip from Palolem, 12-km northwest. The
wardens at the reserve's small Interpretative Centre will show one how
to get to a 25m-high treetop watchtower, overlooking a waterhole that
attracts a handful of animals around dawn and dusk.
On the western tip to the island of
Chorao along River Mandovi, mangrove swamps cover this bird-watchers'
paradise aptly named after India's best-known ornithologist. Open
throughout the year, the sanctuary can be visited with the permission of
the Chief Wild Life Warden, Forest Department, Junta House, Panaji.
Apart from a rich variety of coastal birds, one may spot flying foxes,
jackals and crocodiles.
