temples, the Budha Hanumab Temple near Pandupol, the Bharthari Temple
near the park office, and the hot and cold springs of Taalvriksh. The
large Siliserh Lake is at the north-eastern corner. The forests are dry
deciduous, with trees of Dhak, Acacia, Ber and Salar. The Tigers of Sariska
are largely nocturnal and are not as easily seen as those of Ranthambhor.
The park also has good populations of Nilgai, Sambar and Chital. In the
evenings, Indian Porcupine, Striped Hyaena, Indian Palm Civet and even
Leopard are sometimes seen. The forests are lush during and immediately
following the monsoon, but during the dry months of February May there
is a shortage of water and in consequence mammals are attracted to water
holes. At this time of year visibility is good because of the sparse foliage.

of Indian Peafowl.
