The Nilgiri Biosphere reserve is one of the marvelous creations of our living God, reflecting his love and blessing to humanity. This range of Blue Mountains is the home of many wild animals, birds and reptiles. The UNESCO has identified this and recognized it as the first and foremost biosphere reserve in the year 1986 under The Man and Biosphere Programme. It has a ethnic heritage, rich in flora and fauna. The physical beauty and astonishing wonders call for our immediate attention. The Nilgiris is also the life sustaining source for the plains as it is a perennial source of water.
