India's rich and abundant animal life is attributed to it's diverse climate and geography. There are 372 species of mammals in India, some of which include the majestic elephant, the Indian bison (gaur), rhinoceros, wild Himalayan sheep, nilgai, and the swamp deer. The most superb examples of cats in India are the tiger and the lion, but there are other types as well, the clouded leopard, snow leopard and the marbled cat are a few others found. Several species of monkeys reside in India as well.
A few of the 1,228 bird species found in India include peacocks, parrots, kingfishers, parakeets, cranes, mynahs, pheasants, ducks, geese and hornbills. Crocodiles and gharials are two of the 446 reptile species found. Since crocodiles were threatened with extinction, India has implemented a plan that has successfully increased their numbers. Other reptiles to be found are the cobra, krait, saltwater snake and python.
