50 km from Margao, in the south, is the lesser known wildlife sanctuary of Cotigaon, spread over 85sqkm, it boasts of some virgin forest, and wild animals like, the leopards, black panthers, sloth bears, spotted deer, gaur, giant squirrels... though as in the case of any sanctuary.. you need plenty of luck and patience to actually spot anything... but this place is worth an overnight stay, if you can spare the time..

hv been "trailing" you(r blogspot) for a while now....xcellent photos!..but nothing like what the eyes must hv seen...right? and another thing i envy u abt...the road trips u r doing...wat better way to see the countryside!hmmmm ..any space there for extra baggage?
Nice to come across someone who enjoys the kind of stuff that we do. You got it sopt on when you say that no pic can capture the beauty that the eye sees.. ( does not help that none in our group has an SLR camera, all my snaps are normally from a cannon digital camera or even my mobile camera). We however do most our road trips centered around goa... if you are from around here or down here, any lover of the outdoors is always welcome.... or for the matter if u want info on how to get to some place etc... just ask.
okies..noted...for the moment tho i guess ill hv to feast my eyes on those photographs!!! keep clicking and posting. atb.
u can contact me on anup_sardesai@yahoo.com
