#Project Tiger

[bumblebeeappletree]

In Madhya Pradesh, renowned as India’s “tiger state,” a team installs AI-integrated camera traps to reduce conflict and safeguard lives in a vital wildlife corridor home to 2 million people – and 300 wild tigers that have caused an increasing number of problems for locals.

India is home to 75% of the world’s remaining wild tigers, a comeback story that’s the result of Project Tiger, one of history’s most successful wildlife conservation projects. But a growing tiger population increases competition for space and pushes the cats beyond dedicated reserves and into human-dominated landscapes. There, they may hunt livestock or even attack people.

The forested corridor between the Kanha and Pench Tiger Reserves has the world’s largest population of tigers, sharing their land with 715 villages and settlements. To protect the communities and their livelihoods, Hrishita Negi has partnered with the developers of a game-changing solution: artificial intelligence. When a tiger triggers the automated camera trap, AI identifies the animal and sends a text notification to park rangers within seconds. They, in turn, put the community’s homegrown alert system into action, prompting a messenger to alert everyone to the tiger’s presence and give them time to protect their livestock. AI may become a tool that can be scaled to help save not only tigers -- but endangered wildlife worldwide.

India’s Biodiversity Conservation Strategy: A Blueprint for Sustainable Coexistence

India, a land of breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cultures, is also a treasure trove of biodiversity. As one of the world’s 17 megadiverse nations, India is home to nearly 8% of the planet’s recorded species, including over 45,000 plant species and 91,000 animal species. From the towering Himalayas to the serene backwaters of Kerala, from the dense forests of the Western Ghats to the arid expanses of the Thar Desert, India’s ecosystems are as diverse as its people. This incredible natural wealth is not just a source of national pride but a cornerstone of ecological balance, cultural identity, and economic sustainability. Recognizing this, India has developed a comprehensive approach to biodiversity conservation, blending traditional wisdom, scientific innovation, and community-driven initiatives to safeguard its natural heritage.

one of these days, I will not immediately out myself as a weird person who knows too many facts when meeting new people, or do so repeatedly when engaging with people I know---but not today. (tomorrow's not looking great either.)

I think Sonic is easy to fall in love. He has a lot of it to give, freely and without condition. The issue is that he is impossible to pin down, and he refuses to settle for even a moment.

He loves Tails in the way that brothers who cant imagine life without each other do

He loves Knuckles like how warriors that forever have each other backs love each other

He loves Amy- though not in the way she loves him, nor as much as she needs. No he loves her as one of his best friends, he loves the passion that she carries in every action

The way he loves Shadow is that of two beings that understand each other to a far greater degree than anyone else in the universe can understand them. Its the raw sort of love that comes from the soul.

He loves people. Loves them enough to save them and their world over and over and over again, no matter how many times he puts his own life in danger or gets hurt at the hands of others. He has so much love in his heart that he cannot possibly contain it

The only person he doesnt have love for is himself. And thats why he supplements it with overconfidence and a cocky smirk.

Correction:

At 14:02 we erroneously mentioned that the 1.4km underpass was built by the Wildlife Conservation Trust. The corrected fact is that the underpass was built in consultation with the Wildlife Conservation Trust, who advised the NHAI based on their long-term study, to ensure that linear infrastructure like roads, rails and canals don't fragment forests.

We regret the inaccuracy and stand corrected.

Every week, Eco India brings you stories that inspire you to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow.

Project Tiger was launched 50 years ago, an ambitious project aimed at reviving India's tiger population, which had fallen dramatically. The conservation initiative has helped boost tiger numbers in Madhya Pradesh, known as the 'tiger state'.

India's Wildlife Conservation: Triumphs, Trials, and the Path Forward

India’s wildlife is at a crossroads, teetering between spectacular conservation successes and looming ecological crises. Home to 7-8% of the world's recorded species, the country shelters Bengal tigers, Asiatic lions, elephants, snow leopards, and a vast array of flora and fauna across its 106 national parks and 567 wildlife sanctuaries. Project Tiger, the Asiatic lion’s revival in Gir, and elephant conservation efforts are hailed as global success stories. Yet, beneath these triumphs lie critical concerns—shrinking habitats, increasing human-wildlife conflicts, illegal poaching, and climate change-induced disruptions. In 2023 alone, 142 tigers died, and over 600 sea turtles washed up dead on the eastern coast. Government funding for conservation has been slashed, and encroachment threatens vital corridors. As India strides toward rapid urbanization, the battle for coexistence intensifies. Can the nation balance its economic aspirations with preserving its rich biodiversity, or are we staring at an irreversible loss of our natural heritage?
