Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary, Kannur district, KL - India’s first butterfly sanctuary


Home to more than 260 species of butterflies, Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary – a 55-square-kilometre forest, just twice the area of Central Delhi – in Kannur district in Kerala will be India’s first ever butterfly sanctuary.

On June 18, 2025, the Kerala State Wildlife Board decided to rename Aralam Wildlife Sanctuary as Aralam Butterfly Sanctuary. While there are many wildlife sanctuaries and national parks that host a huge diversity of butterfly species, what stands out about Aralam is the sheer numbers of some butterfly species that pass through the sanctuary as part of their seasonal or annual migration routes.
