Few years back it was a dream to sight tigers in Similipal but now tourists are sighting very frequently and clicking beautiful photos. This revival is a result of hard work and sacrifice made by our team. Proud of my team Similipal. PC: tourists ( Anirban pal)

A long journey of 900kms but it hardly took anytime for ‘Jamuna’ , the tigress brought from TATR to find its foot. For enhancing the genetic diversity of the Simlipal Tigers, it is anticipated to play a key role. It’s doing fine in its soft enclosure.

Thank you sir
Extremely proud of team Simlipal😌 Remotely placed AI cameras captured the images of poachers entering into Simlipal. All were arrested & four country made guns were seized. Time for persons still engaged in such adventurism to stay clear of the protected areas.

Extensive use of AI & camera traps in Simlipal Tiger Reserve is helping in nabbing the poachers & intruders. Three persons were caught on the camera & they were arrested with guns & other tools kept for poaching by subsequent raids in their village.Well done team Simlipal.
