History
Kanger Valley National Park was established in 1982 to protect the unique biodiversity and geological formations of the Kanger Valley. The area has a long history of tribal inhabitation, with local communities relying on the forest for their livelihoods. The park's establishment aimed to balance conservation efforts with the needs of the local population. Over the years, the park has faced challenges related to deforestation, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict. However, ongoing conservation efforts and community involvement have helped to mitigate these threats. The park continues to be an important site for scientific research and environmental education, contributing to a greater understanding of the region's natural heritage.
