Project Tiger: A Legacy of Tiger Conservation
Launched in 1973, Project Tiger was one of the most significant initiatives in wildlife conservation in India, aimed at safeguarding the dwindling tiger population. At the time of its inception, India was home to approximately 40,000 tigers, but rampant poaching and habitat loss had drastically reduced their numbers. Today, after decades of concerted efforts, the tiger population in India has shown a promising recovery, with the latest census revealing a population of over 2,900 tigers.
Key Strategies and Achievements:
- *Protected Areas: * The project established a network of 50 tiger reserves covering vast areas of forest. Notable reserves include Jim Corbett, Ranthambore, Bandhavgarh, and Kanha.
- *Community Involvement: * Engaging local communities through awareness programs and eco-development initiatives, thereby minimizing human-tiger conflicts.
- *Anti-poaching Measures: * Strengthening law enforcement to combat poaching and illegal wildlife trade.
- *Monitoring Programs: * Implementing state-of-the-art tracking technologies and methodologies, such as camera traps and pugmark tracing, to monitor tiger populations.

National Parks Of India
India is blessed with a rich tapestry of biodiversity that is both a natural heritage and a national treasure. The concept of national parks in the country traces back to the late 19th century when the importance of conserving wildlife began to take root in the consciousness of the colonial administration. The first national park in India, Hailey National Park (now known as Rajaji National Park), was established in 1936, marking a historic commitment to wildlife conservation. The post-independence era saw an exponential increase in protected areas, primarily driven by a need to conserve India’s unique flora and fauna threatened by rampant industrialization and urbanization.
