Daroji Bear Sanctuary In Hampi, Karnataka

The Government of Karnataka in October 1994 declared a part of Bilikallu Reserve Forest as the Daroji Bear Sanctuary to protect Sloth Bears, locally known as Karadi. Being nocturnal animals, sloth bears hunt for food including fruits, flowers, honey, insects and termites during the nights and rest during the day.

Apart from the 120 sloth bears, one can also find animals like tigers, leopards, star tortoise, 90 species of birds and 27 species of butterflies inside the Daroji Sloth Bear Sanctuary, making their visit even more memorable. A watch tower located opposite to Karadi Kallu Gudda lets tourists enjoy spotting the sloth bears hiding, hunting and eating. Tourists can also cherish breathtaking views of the overall terrain. Embark on an exciting Daroji Bear Sanctuary Safari or spend time amidst nature at the Sloth bear Resort.
