Tiger
The Dudhwa Tiger Reserve is located in the Lakhimpur-Kheri district of Uttar Pradesh. It is one of the finest examples of the exceedingly diverse and productive Terai eco-systems. The northern edge of the reserve lies along the Indo-Nepal border, which is defined to a large extent by the Mohana river. while the Suheli river marks the southern boundary. The area is a vast alluvial floodplain traversed by numerous rivers and streams flowing in south-easterly direction. It ranges in altitude from 110 to 185 meters above sea level.
These forests had been the habitat of the rhinoceros almost 150 years ago. Apart from the swamp deer, a major rhinoceros rehabilitation project was started in 1984. Five rhinos were relocated from Assam but two of the females died due to the strains of transportation. Four more female rhinos from Nepal were brought here to replace these in 1985.
