A Glimpse into Sariska’s Conservation History

Sariska’s journey as a wildlife haven began in 1955, later, it became an integral part of Project Tiger in India in 1973 earning its place as one of the leading wildlife sanctuaries in Rajasthan. The sanctuary faced significant challenges, including the complete disappearance of tigers in 2005 due to poaching and human interference. Bold measures like anti-poaching initiatives and the relocation of villages helped Sariska reclaim its status as a thriving tiger reserve, ensuring the Bengal tiger's safe return. Today, Sariska stands tall as a beacon of hope for wildlife conservation.

Tehla Gate: The Unsung Hero of Sariska

As a buffer zone, Tehla Gate seamlessly blends conservation with sustainable tourism. Its role goes beyond proximity; it bridges local communities, eco-tourism, and wildlife conservation to form a robust support system for the Sariska Wildlife Sanctuary.
