Summary
| Description |
English: The Pench Tiger Reserve lies in the southern lower reaches of the Satpura range of hills between the borders of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra states of India. Ecologically, Pench is categorized as a tropical moist deciduous (TMD) tiger habitat.
The Indian Golden Jackal (Canis aureus indicus), also known as the Himalayan jackal, are often seen in this jungle. Golden jackals are monogamous, with remarkably long courtship periods lasting 26–28 days. Golden jackals pair for life and the male guards his mate from rivals during the breeding season (October in East Africa, December in Southeast Europe, and all year round in India). A pair of jackals howl together to show that there is a bond between them. Its preferred habitats consist of flat shrublands, humid reeded areas and floodplains. The popular fictional works of Rudyard Kipling, ‘The Jungle Book’ and ‘The Second Jungle Book’ also have their stories set around this region. |
