the really interesting story is around how the law enforcement works here . Indian Tigers (especially the Royal Bengal Tigers) are some of the world's largest predators and are prized in Chinese medicine. Its brilliant how poachers have been kept off.
For those interested, there is a brilliant web documentary series called "Ranger, Ranger" about India's forest rangers who work in the sanctuaries - http://mukha.co/ranger-ranger/ http://mukha.co/ranger-ranger/
here's the one with the Tigers - http://mukha.co/ranger-ranger/project/resurrecting-paper-tigers-sariska http://mukha.co/ranger-ranger/project/resurrecting-paper-tig...
