Nauradehi, known as the largest Wildlife Sanctuary in Madhya Pradesh, authorities declared it a Sanctuary in 1975. It spreads out over three districts of Sagar, Damoh, and Narsinghpur. It is particularly known for its wolf population, which experts consider the keystone species of the park. The Sanctuary houses about 193 species of birds, 35 species of mammals, and more than 100 varieties of trees. The park boasts an interesting geography with three-fourths of its area lying in the Yamuna basin and one-fourth being part of the Narmada basin. It encompasses several rivers, hills, and sprawling grasslands. The park sits on a plateau, forming part of the upper Vindhyan range, and it connects to Veerangana Durgawati Sanctuary in Damoh district, extending up to Bandhavgarh & Panna National Park.

The prominent flora in the park includes Teak, Saja, Dhaora, Bhirra, Ber, Bel, Mahua, Tendu, Gunja, and Amla. This unique yet biodiverse sanctuary acts as an important corridor to reserves such as Panna, Bandhavgarh (connected through Veerangana Durgawati Sanctuary), and Satpura, facilitating the movement of fauna from one park to another. Speaking of animal movement, the Forest Department implemented a tiger reintroduction plan at Nauradehi, following the successful approach taken by Panna Tiger Reserve. In 2018 two tigers were brought in from Kanha and Bandhavgarh to help repopulate the reserve. This reintroduction has been hailed as a success, and as of 2023, the park is home to 15 tigers. The main tourist gatesfor tiger safari at the park are Hinoti and Beena.
