Bardia National Park is undoubtedly the best managed protected area with the verity of endangered mammals, reptiles and is home to Royal Bengal Tiger, Asia’s One Horned Rhinos and fish eating Ghariyals. The Royal Bardiya Park was established in 1969 as a Royal Hunting Reserve. And in 1976 it was gazetted as the Karnali Wildlife Reserve. When this area was protected, about 1500 people of the Babai valley were resettled outside the park allowing the flora and fauna to thrive.
In 1982 it was renamed as The Royal Bardia National Park, and in 1984 it was extended to its current size. The reserve was given the status of a National Park in 1988. It covers an area of 968 km2 (374 sq mi) which makes it a largest and most undisturbed wilderness area in Nepal’s Terai, adjoining the eastern bank of the Karnali River. The park holds the reputation for its rich biodiversity and habitats, 53 species of mammals including the critically endangered one-horned rhinoceros and dolphin and the endangered Asiatic elephant and Royal Bengal tiger and over 400 species of birds, 121 species of fishes and an unknown diversity of mollusks and arthropods.
