Encompassing dense forests and rippling grassland, Chitwan National Park is one of the last refuges of the highly-endangered one-horned Indian rhino. In addition, there are healthy populations of deer, monkey, leopard and of course the elusive Royal Bengal tiger. In its pristine rivers and marshland, the Park is also home to diverse aquatic species including the fish-eating Gharial crocodile and the fierce Marsh Mugger crocodile; an indigenous species that can grow up to 16 feet or more in length!
