Keibul Lamjao National Park
This is located near Bishnupur district -Manipur.It is only the floated national park in the world and also for the dancing deer called "Sangai". This park is declared as sanctuary in the year of 1966 and declared as national park in the year of 1977.Sangai is the state animal of Manipur.This park is located at the south-east side of loktak lake,this also a phumdi (a solid form of biomass and organic garbage). Two third of the total park made of phumdi.This park reduced from its actual area under pressure of local villager in 1988.
During monsoon the hills around this park helps the mammals and animals of this swamp as a shelter.
In dry season phumdis are down to the lake bed,and in monsoon it submerged with water and after some few day it separating from ground and start floating.
Apart from sangai there are some other species found in this park like-Jungle Cat,Golden Cat,Wild Bore,Sambar deer,Flying fox,Python,Many types of cobra,Asian Rat snake etc.
Due to construction Ithai barrage it is necessary to maintain high water level through out the year that's why natural growth of phumdis are getting hampered,its thickness are decreasing day by day which is effecting the survival of jungle species.
Manipur Tourism Department arranges for day tours to the Loktak Lake and the Keibul Lamjao Park.Colorful water plants can be seen during boating through the water way passes through this park.Phumdis is not a firm ground, this area is swamp only so additional care to be taken during tour.
