Shekru Sanvardhan Park, Raypur

Nice park

Beautiful place

Shekru (Giant Squirrel) is a State animal of Maharashtra. This Shekru is observed in this Village and then Forest Department made a park for their conservation.

The Indian Giant Squirrel lives alone or in pairs. They build large globular nests of twigs and leaves, placing them on thinner branches where large predators can't get to them. These nests become conspicuous in deciduous forests during the dry season. An individual may build several nests in a small area of forest which are used as sleeping quarters, with one being used as a nursery.

Good place to see the giant squirrels close on watch tower. No basic facilities available at the site. Carry Your own food and water. No guides available

Everyone should protect & conserve the state animal shekru and preserve the national heritage.
