| The Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, comprising 5,500 square kilometres (2,100xc2xa0sqxc2xa0mi) of the evergreen forests of Nagarahole and deciduous forests of Bandipur in Karnataka, adjoining regions of Wayanad-Mukurthi in Kerala and Mudumalai National Park-Sathyamangalam in Tamil Nadu, forms the largest contiguous protected area in the Western Ghats. | WIKI |
| The justification for developing a serial approach rather than just identifying one large protected area to represent the biodiversity of the Western Ghats is due to the high degree of endemism, meaning that species composition from the very north of the mountains to 1,600km south varies greatly, and no one site could tell the story of the richness of these mountains. | UNESCO |
| 40% of the property lies outside of the formal protected area system, mostly in Reserved Forests, which are legally protected and effectively managed. | UNESCO |
