tadoba andheri tiger reserve

Rajasthan’s conservation story has shifted from loss to recovery. A state once seen as a desert with shrinking habitats is now a national testbed for wildlife turnarounds — from Sariska’s 2008 tiger reintroduction after local extinction, to a tiger landscape that has expanded far beyond Ranthambore. Tourism has turned reserves into local economic engines, while leopard hotspots from Jaipur’s Jhalana to Jawai’s rocky commons draw global attention — and scrutiny. In the Thar, Great Indian Bustard breeding offers cautious hope, even as Sambhar’s 2019 bird deaths warn how fragile wetlands remain

During a recent expedition at Valmiki Tiger Reserve, tourists were thrilled by an unexpected sighting of a majestic rhino, a vivid testament to the triumphs of ongoing conservation strategies. These remarkable creatures, having journeyed from Nepal, symbolize the thriving health of the surrounding ecosystem.

Locals are protesting the relocation of Chhipadohar and Hehegara railway stations from Palamu Tiger Reserve. The Sarvdalya Chhipadohar Hehegara Railway Station Visthapan Sangharsh Samiti submitted a memorandum and threatened protests, including a sit-in and rail chakka jam, if demands are not met.

A decomposed tiger carcass was discovered in a private forest near Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary in Sacorda. Forest officials, alerted by a nature enthusiast, found the remains scattered, suggesting the animal died over two weeks ago. Scavengers are suspected, but the exact cause of death awaits a forensic report.

A young cheetal, grievously injured by a pack of feral dogs in Palamu Tiger Reserve's South Division, has been successfully rescued by forest personnel. The animal, attacked in its hind legs at Jarhee, found refuge near the Maromar rest house where guards intervened. It is now under close observation in an enclosure.
