吉姆·科贝特国家公园，印度(Jim Corbett National Park, India)

拿好你的帽子和望远镜，因为在吉姆·科贝特国家公园，这条河不是普通的水道——它是一条大象高速公路！印度最古老的国家公园建立于1936年，以博物学家和环保主义者吉姆·科贝特的名字命名。吉姆·科贝特国家公园位于喜马拉雅山麓，靠近受欢迎的奈尼塔尔山站，以老虎数量众多而闻名。在夏季，该公园成为一个繁忙的野生动物活动中心，经常可以看到数百头印度象成群结队地漫步。作为德赖弧形景观计划的一部分，该公园是13个保护区之一，旨在保护和恢复。该计划的总体目标雄心勃勃但至关重要：保护三种最具标志性的陆地物种，即老虎、亚洲象和大独角犀牛。

Hold onto your hats and binoculars, because in Jim Corbett National Park, the river is no ordinary waterway—it's an elephant expressway! India's oldest national park was established in 1936 and named after the naturalist and conservationist Jim Corbett. Housed in the foothills of the Himalayas near the popular hill-station of Nainital, the Jim Corbett National Park is known for its significant tiger population. During the summer months, the park becomes a bustling hub of wildlife activity, with Indian elephants frequently spotted roaming in herds numbering several hundred. As part of the Terai Arc Landscape Programme, the park is among the thirteen protected areas targeted for preservation and restoration. The overarching goal of this programme is ambitious yet crucial: to safeguard three of the most iconic terrestrial species, namely the tiger, the Asian elephant and the great one-horned rhinoceros.
