Things you should consider while planning for a Wildlife Trip

This is a holiday season and everyone would start traveling very soon by the end of the year and that is actually the best season to be in the wild, explore and experience what you have never experienced before. These are some of the expert tips that you must follow if you are planning for a wildlife trip.

These are not the only factors that you should be considering while you plan a wildlife trip but these are some of the important factors that you should be definitely looking into in case you are planning a wildlife trip.

1. Which part of the world do you want to explore?

The first question that you need to answer when you decide that you have to step out on a holiday. There is something you need to know which has a lot to do with the natural history of the world which depends rapidly on these particular seasons.

Answering this particular question can be made easier by answering these simple questions
– What is the climate that you would want to experience? Extreme cold / Mid cold / Asian Winters
– Do you have any target species that you want to see?
– What is the activity that you want yourself involved in?

These are some of the questions that you need to answer which should help you find the exact destination that you need to go for your vacation. There are several answers to each questions and you should definitely get in touch with the experts for example you can answer this in this particular way
For example : You want to experience the Indian winters which are not such a heavy winter when compared to other foreign winters, The target species is you want to see Asiatic elephants and Indian tigers, The activity you want to involved in is trekking, safari and boating then we have the perfect destination right here for you The Periyar Tiger Reserve in Kerala, India . We from the expertise know from all your choices this would be the best thing for you. If you have a different choice then it would be better to consult with the experts to know what would be best for you.


2. What is the specific taxa that you want to explore and understand?

There are several taxa that can be experienced such as Mammals, Birds, Reptiles, Amphibians which can also be further simplified into primates, apes, water birds, terrestrial mammals, snakes, frogs. Deciding on your specific taxa of interest can help you concentrate your search to those specific destinations that have a high density of that particular species that you wish to see, learn and enjoy watching or photographing them.

Why should you choose? If you had chosen your destination with your previous search you would have ended up in a variety of landscapes. This particular filtration would help you reduce the range of search. For example : According to the previous message you end up with a larger landscape called as the Periyar Tiger Reserve, so when you choose the taxa as birds or even simplify with a even more sub taxa as water birds we can just choose one specific range near the lake areas where there is a larger amount of water birds that can be found. The expertise of our team in the particular landscape makes it easier for you to understand the things better and decide it perfectly.


3. What is the best time of the year when you should visit the jungle?

Once you have chosen the specific destination and which taxa you want to explore here is some natural history that you have to understand so that you make the maximum use of the particular trip and this is one major question that keeps wandering on each and everyone’s mind as soon as they fix the specific destination they should explore.

Natural history is something that is totally unpredictable and not a single naturalist can assure you any guaranteed sightings. So there are specific seasons that are attached with each and every taxa.

Read this for a better understanding starting throughout the year. When you consider the wildlife season clock which is usually declared that it starts from the month of October – Which is when most of the national parks and wildlife sanctuaries in the Indian subcontinent are opened after being closed for three long months. This is also the start of the migratory season in the Indian subcontinent, which is actually the ideal climate for large numbers of birds and this would be the best time to visit India for birds where there are a lot of bird activities in most of the bird sanctuaries and national parks the season extends until the month of February. 

If you consider enjoying the mammals then the best season would be from March – May as this is the complete dry season in several landscapes and this is the exact time when there are lot of mammals in several forest areas moving around in search of water and most of the water holes that are being present within the tourism area and there is lot of chances for sighting a mammal during this season.

If you consider macro fauna then the best season would be June to September which is usually the mid to heavy monsoon season which is when sighting the amphibians and the reptiles is very much easier and you can get a higher chance of sighting the species.

Knowing the perfect season does not guarantee you a 100% assurance on the sighting or this does tell that there is no chance of sighting these species during the other seasons. It is just that these species can be easily spotted during this particular season and during the other seasons the chances of sighting them would be a bit difficult as it is not the easier season for their survival.


4. What are the possible activities at that particular destination?

After deciding on the particular destination we further find out on what are the activities that are possible in that particular destination such as in a single destination there are several activities that can be enjoyed such as a 

and most of the wildlife destinations are also closer to some fabulous tourist spots which could also be visited based on the choice of the traveler which can also be planned.

This can help you plan on the precise itinerary for the complete schedule of the tour.

5. Safety in the particular destination!

This is something that you should look into very precisely when you are traveling alone and more consciously on safety if you are not a group since your health should be taken care of all by yourself and your hygiene is the first priority in that case. When you consider the stay make sure you do not choose the lavish, luxury resorts which just promise you giving the authentic touch of the native country but the actual native touch is felt by the local homestay which is mainly run by the local people. There might not be certain facilities that you expect like the swimming pool, jacuzzi and many more luxury items such as a five star resort.
These stays can surely assure you safety, authentic food, best hospitality and can suggest you more local places to visit and you get to hear so many stories as these are mainly run by the native people of the particular land who have lived there throughout their life. Most of the people who run these are not certified naturalists but are self learnt and experienced naturalists who have learnt and know a lot on the Animal behavior, tracking and many other wildlife techniques out of their experience.


This is also part of sustainable tourism which is something that should be encouraged where you support the locals and who conserve the jungle and in a way by supporting them you get to support wildlife conservation in an indirect way.

 

 

 

6. How do we get the permits for entering and for all the forest activities?
