Tiger Landscape: Kaziranga Karbi-Anlong

Eastern Indian Highlands

This landscape comprises discontinuous hill ranges, plateaus and escarpments running along the east coast of India.

It spreads over 75,000 sq km and covers parts of Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka States. The four major rivers of southern India - the Kaveri, Krishna, Godavari and Mahanadi - pass through the region.

Encroachment of forests, illicit felling of trees, poaching and habitat fragmentation are among major threats in this landscape.
