Situated near the ancient architectural marvels of Khajuraho and nestled amidst some of India’s stunning wild gorges, Panna National Park is also known as the Emerald Forest of India. Poaching resulted in the extinction of tigers from this landscape but the Government of India took a mammoth task to bring back the lost glory of Panna as tigers from other Central Indian parks were translocated to Panna which marked the beginning of India’s key tiger conservation project where a forest was supposed to be revived with zero tigers.
Panna tiger numbers have been growing ever since and today the park boasts a healthy tiger population that has thrived and flourished in this spectacular landscape studded with ancient history and natural history.
