Kishanpur Wildlife Sanctuary, Protected area in Lakhimpur Kheri, India
Kishanpur Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected forest area in Lakhimpur Kheri, Uttar Pradesh, where dense deciduous woods filled with sal, teak, and jamun trees create a natural habitat for wildlife. The landscape maintains the character of a working forest ecosystem with rivers and clearings that support animal populations.
The sanctuary was created in 1972 to protect the natural environment and animal populations of the region. Its establishment was linked to broader efforts to safeguard large mammals and their habitats across northern India.
Local communities surrounding the sanctuary maintain traditional practices of forest resource management while supporting conservation efforts through generations.
The best time to visit is between November and June, when the weather is cooler and animals are more active. Plan for early morning and late afternoon outings to maximize your chances of observing wildlife in action.
The site functions as a connecting pathway that allows animals to move between protected areas and maintain healthy populations. This corridor role is crucial for the survival of larger predators and deer species in the region.
