Chitwan National Park

Chitwan National Park is the first national park in Nepal. It was established in 1973 with an area of 932sp km. Later in 1977, the park was extended to its present area of 952.63 sq km. Due to its wide biodiversity, it was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1984. Moreover, in 1997 an area of 729.37 sq km was added as a buffer zone. Before the 1950s, the forest of Chitwan spread over more than 2600 sq km was the hunting grounds for the ruling class.This dense forest was home to about 800 one-horned rhinos. Gradually the people from the mid-hills started migrating to Chitwan in search of cultivable lands. Subsequently, the area was opened for settlement and increased human activities resulted in wildlife poaching. Furthermore, after the eradication of malaria human settlement started increasing and by the end 1960s, more than 70% of the forest was cleared. While the human population was increasing in the area rhino and other wildlife kept decreasing. To conserve the wildlife of Chitwan, the borders were marked out in December 1970. The Chitwn National Park is therefore developed with an initial area of 544 sq km.
