History Of Marat Longri Wildlife Sanctuary
Diphu, Assam, India
The Marat Longri Wildlife Sanctuary is a significant protected area spanning approximately 451 square kilometers in the Karbi Anglong district of Assam, India. It was officially established in 2003, having been earlier a National Park proposal. The sanctuary forms a crucial component of the Dhansiri -Lungding Elephant Reserve, highlighting its importance in elephant conservation and habitat protection. The terrain within the sanctuary is characterized by tropical and sub-tropical forests, including hilly areas, swamps, and water pits. The Jamuna River and several smaller streams flow through or adjacent to the sanctuary, contributing to its rich biodiversity, although some streams dry up during the winter season. The forest cover comprises important Reserve Forests (RFs) like Disama RF, Kaki RF, Miyungdisa District Council Reserve Forest (D.C.R.F.), and Englongkiri D.C.R.F. This protected status helps in preserving a unique blend of flora and fauna, making it an ecological hotspot in the region. The sanctuary is known to harbor a variety of significant wildlife species. Major mammal sightings include the Asiatic Elephant, Royal Bengal Tiger, Leopard, Himalayan Black Bear, Hoolock Gibbon (the only ape species found in India), Lesser Cat, Barking Deer, Wild Pig, Porcupine, Slow Loris, and Pangolin. The avian diversity is also high, attracting bird watchers to spot numerous species of hilly and woodland birds like Green Pigeon, Hornbill, Barbets, and possibly the rare White-Winged Duck. Reptiles such as the King Cobra, Banded Krait, Rock Python, Monitor Lizard, and Brown Hill Tortoise also inhabit the area. Despite being relatively underdeveloped in terms of tourism infrastructure compared to some other national parks, its pristine wilderness offers an authentic and rewarding experience for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. The sanctuary's role in conserving the region's natural heritage is vital, especially given the ecological pressures it faces from encroachment and deforestation.
