Alaungdaw Kathapa National Park, Myanmar Progress Report, 2019-2020
Alaungdaw Kathapa National Park is Myanmar's oldest and largest national park. The park protects the largest remaining tracts of intact forest in the country, harboring mixed deciduous forest, evergreen forest and pine forest. These pristine woodlands protect important species like leopards, Asian elephants, sun bears, and Asian wild dogs. Global Conservation is partnering with the Myanmar Ministry of the Environment to deploy Global Park Defense to protect this critical ecosystem.
