Seed Plants of Senchal Wildlife Sanctuary

The Senchal Wildlife Sanctuary is a south-east extension of Singhalila National Park and is one of the Darjeeling’s oldest sanctuaries. The Sanctuary also contains the catchment area for the water supply of the city of Darjeeling. The major vegetation type is moist temperate forest, which supports many large mammals. Many roads and public thoroughfares penetrate the Sanctuary and significantly influence the sanctity of the Sanctuary.
