Sundarban Tiger Reserve during my last trip. This huge male came out from the forest and walk down beside national park boundary.

The Sundarbans is the largest mangrove forest in the world. A protected World Heritage Site, it is split between Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal, with 62 percent being on the Bangladesh side. It is a place of massive biodiversity, but it is also under great threat from the potential effects of climate change.

কালেক্টিভ পেইন্টিং---সুন্দরবন। সকলের রঙ করা শেষে মাস্কিং টেপ তুলে ফেলার পর এই ছবি দাঁড়িয়েছে। ধন্যবাদ শিল্পী মনিরুজ্জামান শিপু ও সমগীতের তরুন শিল্পীদের, যাদের রাতজাগা পরিশ্রমের ফলাফল এই ছবি। এবং অবশ্যই ধন্যবাদ তাদের-যারা সুন্দরবনের জন্য ক্যানভাসে রঙ চাপিয়েছেন। #SaveSundarban #SaveBangladesh #StopRampal

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Sundarbans (Bengali: সুন্দরবন, Shundorbôn) , a single block of tidal halophytic salt-tolerant mangrove forest of great size and bio-diversity, is a vast area covering 4264 square km in India alone. The Sundarbans provides a unique ecosystem and a rich wildlife habitat. The Indian Sundarbans forms the largest Tiger Reserve and National Park in India.

 

The Sundarbans are a part of the world's largest delta formed by the mighty rivers Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna. Situated on the lower end of the Gangetic Bengal, it is also the world’s largest estuarine forest. The Sundarbans is criss-crossed by hundreds of creeks and tributaries. It is one of the most attractive and alluring places remaining on earth, a truly undiscovered paradise.
