These are teak forests, and teak trees grow a distance away from each other, so the wildlife reserves of this area (Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Tadoba, Panna, Pench to name a few) are famous for viewing tigers. That makes them great for photography, too. Jim Corbett's beat was Naini Tal, north of Delhi, and that area has one on India's largest national parks named after him - Corbett National Park. The animals are pretty much common, except that Pench has no elephants and crocodiles, and Corbett has tons of them.
