The Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan is one of the most visited wildlife reserves in the world today. Covering an area of 392 sq km, the park is made up of craggy cliffs, man made lakes, perennial streams, watering holes and bush lands. As a result, the vegetation of Ranthambore is as diverse as its fauna.
It is true that Ranthambore is characterized by different types of vegetation. However, the forest is mainly covered by vegetation of the dry deciduous type. Dhok trees (Anogeissus pensula) are found throughout the whole park. Banyan and Pipal trees also make their presence felt in the Ranthambore National Park.
Other interesting types of trees found in Ranthambore include the Flame of the Forest and Neem. During your Ranthambore tours, you will also come across many fruit bearing trees like the Mango, Jamun and Ber. A number of plants with medicinal properties can also found inside the Ranthambore National Park in Rajasthan.
The Ranthambore vegetation has a very important bearing on the ecosystem of the park. As herbivorous animals feed on the plants for their survival, they in turn provide sustenance for the carnivores inhabiting the park. So the Ranthambore vegetation is part of a cycle that determines the existence of the wildlife populace of Ranthambore.
Learning about the flora of Ranthambore can be an interesting experience for many. In fact, it would be a very good idea to indulge in a nature tour with a naturalist in tow. Visitors will surely gather a wealth of information at the end of their tour
