George Schaller, a legendary conservationist and wildlife biologist, says , "There is no finer experience in the wild than watching tiger walk through the grasses in Indian Jungles." This recent sighting in NSTR perfectly sums it up.

This is truly a reckless and abominable behavior. Driving, coursing, baiting any Schedule 1 animal and any attempt to do so is also seen as hunting under the stringent provisions of Wildlife Protection Act, 1972 and is punishable with imprisonment ranging from 3 years to 7 years.
Identify the animal in this video.
Maybe you are young and you can outrun the elephants. But these irritated animals don’t behave peacefully if they see other human for next few days. Don’t irritate wild animals for your fun.
Sambhar deers are the primary prey species of tigers. They are the largest deer species in Asia. They usually stay in small herds and prefer forested and hilly areas. Poaching for meat is one of the key threats. Any leads to forest department with respect to poaching is welcome.
There's a dire need to sing praises and appreciation of these kinds of eco-warriors who silently toil and sacrifice for the forest and wildlife with no expectation of name or fame.
The onset of winter is also increasing the sighting of these majestic beauties. Gear up, visit us and have a wonderful experience with us.

@vilaswa @sailordoc_vizag @PawanKalyan@ntca_india@AndhraPradeshCM@Tigers4Ever2010@moefcc @tigersinthewild Population should grow naturally without the intervention of the forest department unless the population in the wild gets critically low. Otherwise, intervening in the natural mate selection process of tigers or any animal is unscientific.

As a part of World Wildlife Week, NSTR staff are reaching to the different communities living in and around the tiger reserve, particularly the Chenchus, to make them aware of the importance of wildlife conservation.
