The All India Tiger Estimation (AITE), launched in 2006, is conducted once every four years and has completed five successful cycles so far.
Recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's largest camera trap wildlife survey, AITE has transformed wildlife monitoring in India. Beyond estimating tiger numbers, it provides critical insights into the status of co-predators, prey populations, habitat quality, and landscape connectivity.
The information generated through this exercise plays a vital role in guiding conservation planning, strengthening management interventions, and addressing emerging challenges across India's tiger landscapes.

The hyena has never really been a center of attraction for people who explore forests. Today, India has the highest population of hyenas in Rajasthan, followed by Maharashtra in second place. It is quite surprising that this scavenger of the forest does not prefer dense jungles; it likes open forests like those in Rajasthan.
One surprising fact I want to share is that sightings of hyenas in many major and medium-sized cities of Rajasthan have become quite common. The same situation exists in several urban areas of Maharashtra.
This is the only wild animal that is the true scavenger of the forest, yet even today it does not receive the respect that other animals get. I see these animals in my city at least 2-3 times a week.
This video is of a female hyena and her two subadult cubs. #stripedhyena #scavengerwildanimal #Rajasthanpride #wildlifeofindia #urbanwildlife
