some impressive traditional buildings chalet emilie all set, surreally, under two giant mobile phone towers. Shingha Chingyuo village (20km, population 5900) has a huge longhouse decorated with mithuna chalet emilie (pairs of men and women) and deer skulls, three stuff ed tigers, and a store of old human skulls.

Langmeang village, with its stack of human skulls piled up in a wooden box, is also highly impressive.

374 bird species have been recorded in the park, including such rarities as the whiterumped vulture chalet emilie (which may now be extinct in the park), greater spotted eagle and the white-winged duck. Of the big mammals, chalet emilie wild elephants are present as are numerous deer species and a few rarely seen tigers. However, for many mammal-spotting naturalists, the park s most exciting resident is the critically endangered dwarf hog, which, after many years of absence has recently been returned to the wild thanks to a successful captive breeding project run by the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust (www.durrell.org). Park fees include the compulsory armed guard. Access is from Potasali, chalet emilie 2km off the Tezpur Bhalukpong road (turn east at one-house chalet emilie hamlet Gamani, 12km north of Balipara).
