Activities

NNTR Management

A series of planned and adaptive actions aimed at achieving these objectives. Here are several key reasons why the wildlife management cycle is essential within forest areas:

It helps maintain the delicate balance of ecosystems, conserves biodiversity, and ensures that both wildlife and human needs are met in a sustainable and responsible manner. It promotes the long-term health and resilience of forest ecosystems while recognizing the intrinsic value of wildlife in their natural habitats.

Tiger Translocation

The Nawegaon Nagzira Tiger Reserve (NNTR) landscape was identified for the release of 4-5 female tigresses from the Bramhapuri landscape as part of a tiger conservation and translocation initiative. This decision aimed to address the lower tiger population in NNTR compared to its carrying capacity and to mitigate inbreeding risks. In the first phase, two young female tigresses were released on 20 May 2024, followed by another tigress in the second phase on 11 April 2024. The project seeks to enhance the tiger population in NNTR, ensuring a healthy and genetically diverse tiger population in the landscape.
