Summer Large Game Experience
Jungle Retreat, Masinagudi
13/15 May 2011
The month of May is the harshest time of the year in much of South India. Temperatures soar, there is no rain, dust is blinding at times and water is a scarcity. The silver lining to this is the opportunity for any wildlife buff to get to experience wildlife.
Animals will start gravitating towards the last remaining water bodies and sources of food. Visibility is best at this time as well because the undergrowth is sparse and dry. The Gerry Martin Project is running a Large Game Experience at this time to offer people the best chance to see and photograph a lot of these animals. We will head to Mudumalai Tiger Reserve and stay at Jungle Retreat, a resort that is nestled on the fringes of the forest.In addition to exploring the 35 acres belonging to Jungle Retreat, we will also get a chance to camp out at their campsite high up in the hills. On a previous program, a Tiger had made its kill of a Gaur around eighty meters from our tents!
We will also learn about camera trapping, identifying scats and pugmarks, some of the issues in the Nilgiris and more.
We stay one night in the dormitory and one night out in tents at the campsite up on the mountain. There are options for those who want separate rooms.
Jungle Retreat also has numerous fruiting trees on its campus and should any be in fruit, we will have the chance to sit by and photograph or observe very rich bird life.
We also share the campus with Spotted Deer, Wild Boar, Civet Cats, Mongooses, Wild Dogs, Leopards and more. The chances of seeing wildlife during this season are very high and this is an experience not to be missed by the Nature buff.
