A peek into the world of Satpura, is an amalgamation of stories, anecdotes and wildlife encounters as witnessed by the Jehan Numa family over a decade and half of experiencing Satpura. Jehan Numa’s story in Satpura started in 2009 with Reni Pani Jungle Lodge and has continued till date with the addition of Bori Safari Lodge. The book encompasses contributions from the in-house field team led by Aly Rashid, lodge guests, as well as some expert contributors including Shivang Mehta, Pradip Krishen, Surya Ramachandran, David Raju and Sarosh Lodhi. Some interesting insights have been put forth by the expert contributors who have had their own tryst with this magical wilderness. The book features never seen before visuals of Satpura and a very interesting chapter called “Satpura After Dark”, where SLR camera traps have captured the elusive nocturnal wildlife that lives outside the protected area.
