Corbett Tiger Reserve :- Preserving Tiger
- The National Animal of India.
The magnificent tiger, Panthera tigris is a striped
animal. Tiger has a thick yellow coat of fur with
dark stripes. By nature, the tiger is a keen predator
and carnivore. The Panthera tigris is a native
of the eastern and southern Asia. Known as Lord
of Jungles due to its grace, agility, power and
endurance. The combination of grace, strength,
agility & tremendous power has earned the tiger
its pride of place as the National Animal
of India.
Since time immemorial, the tiger has been considered
as a Royal Animal. Often, The Tiger as the National
Animal of India symbolizes the power,
strength, elegance, alertness,
intelligence and endurance of the
nation.
Corbett Tiger Reserve originally called Hailey
National Park, then Ramganga National Park, it
was renamed in 1957 after the legendary tiger
hunter, Edward
James Jim Corbett
(1875–1955), author and pioneer conservationist,
who put Kumaon on the map with his book The Man-Eaters
of Kumaon. The British hunter was greatly revered
by local people for killing tigers that had developed
a taste for human flesh, but he eventually shot
more wildlife with his camera than with his gun.
The Corbett Tiger Reserve was brought under Project
Tiger when this flagship programme to save
the big cats was launched by India in 1973.
Project Tiger in India - Tiger Reserves In
India
Due to the extreme threat of extinction of the
tiger species from the country, the Indian Government
launched Project Tiger in 1973. Project tiger
was focused to preserve the remaining tiger population
in the country and increase the breeding of the
species so that new population could be added
to the existing one. Under this Project, 23 tiger
reserves were established throughout the country,
covering an area of 33,406 sq. km for providing
safe and comfortable shelter to the tigers in
the natural environment. By 1993, there was much
improvement in the tiger population in the country.
However despite the increase in population, the
population of tigers in the country is still not
satisfactory compared to the effort and money
put in the project. This is due to the illegal
poaching of the tigers and negligence of authorities
towards the alarming situation of the tiger population
in the country.
India’s tiger conservation movement and Asia’s
first endeavour to have a national park, the Corbett
National Park turns 75 this year, marking a string
of successes despite a few incidents of man-animal
conflict
1318-sq-km Corbett Tiger Reserve has extremely
varied topography and vegetation. This gives it
a rich diversity of habitat and natural beauty.
Flat valleys are interspersed with hilly ridges
and the Park's rolling grasslands known as the
'Chaurs' provide visitors with an excellent view
of the animals. The Ramganga River flows through
the Park and little forest streams tumble through
the ravines.
