Indravati National Park Andhra Pradesh
Location: along the Indravati
river from Jagdalpur downstream to the region of Pusnar, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya
Pradesh, and Orissa
Area: Area of wetlands unknown; National Park of 125,837 ha within a Tiger Reserve of 208,400 ha
Altitude: c.300-600 m
Description of site: The Indravati National Park consists of a broad stretch of land along the Indravati river in Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Orissa, which has been reclaimed for rehabilitation purposes. Wetland habitats include the river itself, spring-fed marshes, and numerous tanks and pools in the clay deposits in low-lying areas
Climatic conditions: Tropical monsoon climate, with the average annual rainfall increasing from 1270 mm in the west to 1520 mm in the east. Temperatures range from 11°C to 40°C
Principal vegetation: Aquatic plants in and around the tanks include Nelumbo nucifera, Nymphaea spp., Traps natans, and Utricularia aurea. Isoetes coromandelina also occurs. At Chapka and Jayathgiri, natural springs support a compact, closed swampy vegetation with Calamus ratang, Flagellaria indica, Pandanus tectonics, Similax prolifera and all specimens of Equisetum debile. Most of the Park consists of tropical, mixed-deciduous forest interspersed with grassy glades
Conservation measures taken: The wetlands are protected in the Indravati National Park (125,837 ha), established in 1978. The Park is incorporated within the Indravati Tiger Reserve (208,400 ha), established in 1982 under Project Tiger
Conservation measures proposed: The Management Plan under Project Tiger aims to relocate villages in central and northern parts of the reserve, develop water supplies, and give effective protection against fire and poaching
Land use: The area is managed as a nature reserve
Disturbances and threats: There are some villages in the central and northern parts of the Tiger Reserve
Economic and social values: No information
Fauna: The National Park and Tiger Reserve support a wide variety of large mammals, including Panthers tigris, P. pardus, Bos gaurus, Cervus unicolor, Axis axis, Sus scrota, Canis lupus, and Hyaena hyaena. The reserves contain the most extensive potential habitat for wild water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in India, and would be suitable for re-introduction of swamp deer (Cervus duvaucelli). The wetlands are reported to be rich in waterbirds, but no details are available
