Ranthambore National Park

Near the township of Sawai Madhopur, in the state of Rajasthan, Ranthambore National Park is an outstanding example of Project Tiger's efforts at conservationin the country. 
The desire to preserve the game in these forests for sport, was responsible for their conservation, and subsequent rescue by Project Tiger. 
In 1972, it was estimated, that there were around 1927 tigers in India, of which Rajasthan had 74, and the number of big cats in Ranthambore Sanctuary was 14. 1972 was also the year that Project Tiger was launched, and this sanctuary was taken into its wings, along with seven other sanctuaries and national parks. The Park sprawls over an estimated area of 400 sq kms.
