MANIPUR
shares
352
km
common
International
boundary
with
Myanmar
and
lies
south
of
Nagaland,
north
of
Mizoram
and
east
of
Assam.
It
covers
an
area
of
22,327
sq.
km
with
a
population
of
23,88,634(Provisional
census
2001).
Manipur
is a
mosaic
of
traditions
and
cultural
patterns. |

FLORA
AND
FAUNA:
The
wet
forests,
the
temperate
forest
and
the
pine
forests
occur
between
900-2700
metres
above
sea
level
and
they
together
sustain
a
host
of
rare
and
endemic
plant
and
animal
life.
There
are
around
500
varieties
of
orchids
which
grow
in
Manipur
of
which
472
have
so
far
been
identified.
Hoolock
gibbon,
Slow
loris,
Clouded
leopard,
Mrs.
Hume's
Barebacked
pheasant,
Blyth's
Tragopan,
Hornbills
etc.
form
only
a
part
of
the
natural
heritage
of
Manipur.
However,
the
most
unique
is
the
"Sangai",
the
dancing
deer.
The
floating
mass
of
vegetation
on
the
Loktak
Lake
sustains
small
herds
of
this
endemic
deer
which
is
the
most
threatened
species
in
the
world. |
