Chilapata Forests

The Chilapata Forest is a dense forest near Jaldapara National Park in Dooars, Alipurduar district, West Bengal, India. It is about 20 km from Alipurduar, and just a few minutes away from Hasimara town. Until recently, the area was known for dacoity (banditry), but it is now safe for tourists.
==Ecology==

The forest forms an elephant corridor between Jaldapara National Park and the Buxa Tiger Reserve,〔(Wildlife Times: Elephants of North Bengal )〕 and is rich in wildlife. New species continue to be found.〔(The Telegraph June 7, 2008: From Paris on frog study tour )〕 The forest used to be home to large Rhinoceros populations. In hunting expeditions in 1892-1904, in and around Chilapata Forest, the Maharajah of Cooch Behar recorded killing one rhino, injury of one, and sighting of over 14.〔(Rhino Resource Center: Population history of rhinoceros in North Bengal )〕 Rhinos now are extremely rare. Leopards are still common.〔(Trek Earth: LEOPARD OF THE DOOARS )〕
It is hoped that eco-tourism will provide a new source of income for the indigenous Rabha people, who now depend on the forest mainly for firewood.〔Contested Belonging: An Indigenous People's Struggle for Forest and Identity in Sub-Himalayan Bengal by B. G. Karlsson, 2000 ISBN 0-7007-1179-1, ISBN 978-0-7007-1179-6〕
