A
Jungle Journey
From being a local Chennai boy to becoming
a naturalist in the jungles of Central India, the journey of Surya Ramachandran has
been a fascinating one. After graduating from
engineering, a tour in the Satpura Tiger Reserve changed his life and
led him to follow his passion for wildlife and become a full time
naturalist. His interests expand to all types of life
forms, especially the lesser fauna of the region and their micro habitats. His
enthusiasm led to
pioneering Central India’s first walking
safari, canoeing, wilderness camping and night rides at Satpura. Later, Surya moved to Kanha where he
co-authored his unique book titled Photographic field guide Wildlife of Central
India with
David Raju.
Join us for a firsthand encounter of
Central India’s rich flora and fauna with Surya
Ramachandran.
