Correct Answer: Kanha National Park. Kanha has become the first tiger reserve in India to officially introduce a mascot “Bhoorsingh the Barasingha” to present the hard ground swamp deer as the spirit of the reserve and spread awareness to save it from possible extinction. They used Barasingha as a Mascot due to create a unique identity for Kanha, which makes it look distinct and help in spreading awareness and allows the younger generation to connect with all wildlife. Kanha National park was the last home to the Hard-Ground Barasingha (Swamp Deer). It means hard-ground sub-species of barasingha can't be seen anywhere else in world.
