Manjira Wildlife Sanctuary, Wildlife sanctuary in Andhra Pradesh, India.
Manjira Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected area along the Manjira River in Andhra Pradesh, providing habitats for birds, mammals, and aquatic animals. The land contains distinct zones with varied ecological conditions that support different wildlife species.
The sanctuary was established in 1978 to protect the Manjira River basin ecosystem. It was created to preserve water resources and wildlife for surrounding communities.
The river holds deep spiritual meaning for local communities, reflected in their daily connection to the landscape. People from the region visit to express their relationship with nature while participating in conservation efforts.
Visitors should arrive early when wildlife is most active. Sturdy footwear and water are important since trails pass through natural terrain.
Multiple natural pools within the sanctuary create specialized habitats with varying water and soil conditions. These small microhabitats support animal and plant species found nowhere else in the area.
