Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary is very rich in fauna. Those were the days when the British Government gave rewards for killing the tigers in the vicinity. During that period hundreds of tigers in this vicinity. During that period hundreds of tigers and cubs were shot dead to control the tiger population, because some of the tigers had become man-eaters. Now for your dismay there are 13 tigers left in Dandeli jungle (dandeli wildlife sanctuary). When Dandeli wildlife sanctuary came into existence in the 1998 these endangered animals got protection. There are about 45 elephants in this Dandeli forest, it is said that these elephants are not the residents of Dandeli forest because the records maintained during British regime say that they are migrated from neighboring districts. Later due to one or the other reason they become permanent residents of this region of Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary.
