Wildlife Wonders of India

India is home to a rich population of diverse species that originated from different regions a long time ago. According to a study, approximately 60 to 70% of the world's biodiversity are sheltered in India's numerous wildlife sanctuaries.

The country's wide variety of animals helped its people develop a sense of responsibility to protect their natural world. In preventing any threat to their wildlife, India has long since put up protected areas such as national parks, biosphere reserves, conservation areas, reserved forests, and wildlife sanctuaries to safeguard creatures and their habitats. They have also enacted laws and schemes to promote the preservation of these species, one of them the Project Tiger which was aimed at protecting and sheltering tigers within tiger reserves in India.

India protects species of fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, and endangered species. In all their efforts to preserve their flora and fauna biodiversity, India has claimed a large land area devoted to managing wildlife sanctuaries popular to tourists looking for Indian wildlife holidays. This great venture was started to maintain sanctuaries and it continues to play a big role in the country's economy and tourism and in the tourists wildlife experience. For the nature lovers or those who are hunting for a great photograph, India's wildlife areas are great places to be mesmerized.
Wildlife Holidays India will not be complete without a Tiger tour. It is the most popular attraction in India as each guest is given an opportunity to see a tiger up close in this jeep safari tour. Many parks in India facilitate tours at any time of the year. Ranthambhore, Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Corbett and Pench are places where you can witness this big cat in its natural habitat.

Elephant safari tours are also great opportunities you should never miss. During one of your India Wildlife Safaris, venture out into areas reachable only by these friendly and gigantic animals. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity since you cannot ride an elephant in the city.

These India Wildlife Sanctuaries continue to attract many tourists coming from different parts of the globe to wonder at this large and unique gathering of species. Indian wildlife holidays are a way to discover the natural beauty of the country. Watch India's famous elephants or get as close as you can get to a Royal Bengal Tiger. There are different tours you can join and each will surely be a great wildlife experience.
