Project Tiger, launched in 1973-74, is one of our most successful conservation ventures in the recent times. The project aims at tiger conservation in specially constituted 'tiger reserves', which are representative of various bio-geographical regions falling within India. It strives to maintain a viable tiger population in the natural environment. There are 37 tiger reserves in India where the Indian Tiger is found. Some Major reserves are:
A. Bandipur
B. Ranthambore
C. Corbett
D. Mudumalai
E. Parambikulam
F. Sariska
G. Anamalai
H. etc
