THE BAMBOO FOREST NATURE CONSERVANCY, GOTHANGAON.
A COCOON CONSERVANCY
As part of our initiatives under COCOON (COMMUNITY OWNED COMMUNITY OPERATED NATURE CONSERVANCIE) participation in partnership with the local community at Village Gothangaon, at Umred Karhandla Paoni Wildlife Sanctuary, covering over 100 acres of land, is definitely a gigantic leap forward from our small step at Camp Alijhanjha. At Gothangaon, over 100s of acres of marginal or lost farmlands lay between Critical Tiger Habitat and a perennial source of water, which were further ravaged by the back waters of Gosikhurd Reservoir. It is here that we have envisaged the BAMBOO FOREST NATURE CONSERVANCY at GOTHANGAON.
