Decades ago, India feared losing its tigers; today it's home to nearly 75% of the world's wild population; here's how India became the 'Tiger Capital'

India now supports three-fourths of the world's wild tiger population. Project Tiger, launched in 1973, initiated this significant conservation turnaround. This success is attributed to scientific monitoring and habitat restoration efforts. Responsible tourism has also boosted local economies and forest protection. India stands as a global example of conservation and tourism coexistence.
