Few days back I got the news that Tiger cubs born in Panna National Park. News was good but no forest official was ready to say something on authenticity of news so I decided to remain quite and adopt the wait & watch policy. But now with the confirmed sighting of Three tiger-cubs in Hinouta range, close to Ghughua Fall, by Field Director of Panna National Park has now put confirmation seal on the news. It is really a great news as this the new generation of Tigers in Panna National Park. Now we can say they are the original tigers of Panna National Park.
On Friday, 07th May, 2010, with the sighting of 3-cubs, came out first time from the their cave, Field Director has confirmed the news. Forest Department is now taking special care of the area. Sighting took place outside a cave located in Hinouta Range, close to Ghughua Fall.
Earlier one female from Bandhavgarh & Kanha each and one male from Pench National Park was translocated after the success of tiger re-introduction program in Sariska National Park, Rajasthan.
We all wish them GOOD LUCK!

Disappearance of Tiger population from Panna National Park becomes the only reason for which it attracts media attention. But now authorities of Panna National Park has make up its mind to promote it as a National Park having rare species of Vultures. So picture of Vulture/s will give new face to Panna National Park. Presence of 6 rare species of vultures in Panna forest will be promoted to give some reason to wildlife lovers for visiting it. Panna Park is removed from wildlife itineraries with the disappearance Tigers. Vultures found in Panna Forest are:
1. Long Billed Vulture (Gyps indicus)
2. White Backed Vulture (Gyps africanus)
3. Asian King Vulture (Sarcogyps calvus)
4. Himalayan Griffon Vulture (Gyps himalayensis)
5. Egyptian Vulture (Neophron percnopterus)
6. Eurasian Vulture (Aegypius monachus)
Almost disappeared, Black-capped Kingfisher, so far seen in Kanha National Park was also seen in Hinouta Sub-division of Panna forest. Field Director of Panna National Park has also indicated in this direction. He said that officials are trying to focus on birds species found in this Forest region so that they may be exposed to the world to restore the tourism loss, to some extent, occurred due Tigers loss.
In addition to Birding in Panna forest, one can also see World's Oldest Elephant called VATSALA, an unmatched Gem of Panna National Park in Central India. Panna forest has always enjoyed the advantage of being close to Khajuraho Temples (40kms) and enroute on Khajuraho - Bandhavgarh route but all gone into vain with loss of tigers. Bandhavgarh is just 230kms from Panna National Park.
