For now, one of the most happening tourist destinations in North Bengal is Bengal Safari Park near Siliguri. The park is getting ready to welcome two new celebrity dwellers.
Two male leopards will be coming from Khayerbari Royal Bengal Tiger and Leopard Rescue Centre that came into being in the year 2005. Interestingly, these two leopards are lovingly named Sachin and Sourav. They were initially caught five years ago at the Santali Tea Garden in the Kalchini Block.
The total area fenced for their free movement is almost about 20 acres. Bengal Safari Park is home to a number of other animal varieties like black bears, rhinoceroses and elephants. A wide variety of bird species are also available in this region. During winters, migratory birds from different parts of the world flock to the Bengal Safari Park.
