Located
in the deltaic region of Brahmani and
Baitarani on the north - eastern coast of
India, the Bhitarkanika mangroves represent
one of the finest remaining patches of
mangrove forests, along the entire Indian
coast. With two and half decades of
continued conservation measures, this area
has emerged as one of the well known coastal
wetlands.
Bhitarkanika is a major breeding and wintering
place for a multitude of resident and
migratory waterbirds and is the east coast's
major nursery for brackish water and
estuarine fish fauna.
|
|
It
supports a wide variety of wetland habitats
ranging from tidal rivers and creeks to
riverine islands and intertidal zones, apart
from coastal wetlands along the eastern
boundary.
Bhitarkanika mangroves has been designated as
a Ramsar Site in November 2002.
