Ranthambore Wildlife National Park is the largest National
Park located in the State of Rajasthan in northwest India. The national park
covers a vast area of about 400 sq. km. and is easily reachable from Sawai
Madhopur – the nearest railway station from the park. It is also one of the
major wildlife tourist destinations in India.
It is home to the Royal Bengal Tigers which breed and live here in a safe and secure environment. The best time of visiting Ranthambore National Park is between the months of November to April end when the park throws open its gates to welcome wildlife tourists and nature conservationists. The park is also home to spotted leopards, nilgai, chital, sambar, hyena, sloth bear and wild boars.
The Forest Department had relocated tigers from Ranthambore
to Sariska Tiger Reserve in 2008 to boost their growth and increase tourism
opportunities there. Recent news and pictures taken from camera traps in
Sariska Tiger Reserve show 2 tigresses - ST-2 and ST-10 have given birth to 2
cubs each in the past few months.
The current population of tigers has shot up with 4 of the
recent cubs at the Sariska Tiger Reserve. It is indeed a joyful moment for all
wildlife enthusiasts and lovers to see those lovely and cute cubs following
their mother and playing antics with her.
This relocation exercise by the forest department has
instilled confidence of increasing the population of tigers in India. These
majestic beasts are a wonder of nature and also aid in economic development of
the surrounding area where they dwell in by giving rise to wildlife tourism.
People from all over the world come to enjoy wildlife and
take Indian Wildlife Sanctuaries Travel Packages well in advance of the tourist
season through online bookings.
