Sanctuary, dolphin, bird, flower and the state tree

Karkatgarh, in the Kaimur hills, is named as the place of Bihar's first crocodile conservation site. The waterfall there is the landmark the note gives. Manpur, Kakolat and Rajgir are the other sites offered. The key is Karkatgarh.

The Gangetic dolphin question says Bihar was the first state, on the Centre's suggestion, to declare it the national aquatic animal. The state bird in the key is the house sparrow. The state flower is marigold. The state tree is the peepal, and the note dates that decision to April 2013. Sesame, babool and bel are the trees the key does not choose. A Green India award question, placed with the forests of this chapter, says Bihar was the first state whose environment and forests were included in the transparent tree-friend award.
