Bibhutibhushan Wildlife Sanctuary, Wildlife sanctuary in North 24 Parganas district, India

The sanctuary spans 92 hectares along the Ichamati River, providing shelter for spotted deer and numerous bird species in a forested environment.

The sanctuary began in 1965 with four spotted deer from Alipore Zoo, growing to a population of 201 deer by 1986 before a flood in 2000.

The sanctuary bears the name of Bengali author Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, whose literary works drew inspiration from this natural environment.

Visitors can reach the sanctuary by taking a train to Bongaon or Ranaghat stations, followed by a bus journey to Naldugri station.

The sanctuary schedules deer feeding sessions twice daily, at 9 AM and 4 PM, allowing visitors to observe the animals during their meal times.
