Memorandum submitted regarding not shifting tigers from Ranthambore's tourist area.


18 July 2022..

Recently, people associated with Ranthambore tourism and NGO organizations submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Conservator of Forests on Monday in protest against the tigress that was shifted from Zone-5 area of ​​Ranthambore tourism area to T- 102 in Ramgarh.


At the same time, he demanded not to shift any tourist area tiger from Ranthambore in future. Because the livelihood of the local people is related to tourism, if after the tourism sector is shifted elsewhere, then it will have a bad effect on the income of the government and the livelihood of the local people.

Along with this, he demanded that in future the tiger should be taken from the non-tourism area and the participation of local people should be ensured by forming an advisory committee. Opinion should also be taken from the members of the vehicle union office bearers.

 He said that if any tiger would be sent to tourism zone in future, then we were compelled to warn of agitation by people associated with tourism, local organizations and wildlife lovers.

 on this occasion

Ranthambore Jungle Safari Vehicle Owners Union, Ranthambore Drivers Association, Ranthambore Nature GuideAssociation, Pathik lok seva samiti , Ranthambore Tiger Conservation and Rural Development Committee, Ranthambore Hotel Association, Ranthambore Travel Agent Association, all the office bearers and members of Ranthambore Bagh bachao  Sangharsh Samiti Sawai Madhopur were present.

September means Big Butterfly Month

September means Big Butterfly Month


Jaipur : September is the month of butterflies, wherever you go you'll see some or the other butterflies fluttering here and there, some are seen nectaring flowers, some are seen doing mud-puddling and some mating or laying eggs.

Butterfly is a beautiful creature or rather we say an insect, that always attracts and fascinate us, they have beautiful wings and verity of colours, and they are found in different shapes and sizes, almost all butterflies are attractive. 

There are more than 125 species of butterflies in Rajasthan, some of them are Common Rose, Crimson Rose, Common Jezebel, Common Jay, Tailed Jay, Plain Tiger, Blue Tiger, Common Leopard, Common Castor, Danaid Eggfly, Great Eggfly, Common Mormon, Common Crow, Red Periot, Common Gull, Small Salmon Arab, Zebra Blue, Forget me not, Common Joker, Gram Blue, Common Grass Yellow, White Orange Tip, Yellow Orange Tip, Baronet, Common Shot Silver Line, Lilac Silver Line, Blue Spotted Arab, Desert grizzled skipper, Skipper, Tricolour Pied Flat, Lime Butterfly and so on.... The list continues.

September is after rains is perfect season fot them to breed, it's not harsh like summers and winters so this season is known for the butterflies. Many organisations including BNHS and now Forest Department also organises Big Butterfly Month. Here you have to collect data of the butterflies you see in a specific area. Recently in Madhyapradesh a Butterfly Survey has been conducted at Ratapani Wildlife Sanctuary.

Similarly in many places all over the country this event is organized, butterfly are one of the key species of any eco-system, they are good pollinators equally as bee, and it is not an  exaggeration that you can't imagine human life without butterflies. 

This is the time when we can create awareness and teach and educate our next generation about how important are butterflies. Habitat loss and severe anthropogenic pressure has disturbed the life cycle and survival of many species. As you know butterflies lay eggs on specific plant their larva or caterpillar survives on specific host plant, so if that specific plant is lost you'll also not find a particular species of butterfly there. So if we need to save our environment and similarly ourselves we need to conserve our forest and eco-system.

Multi Talented Forest Guard Chandra Pratap Singh Tanwar

Multi Talented Forest Guard Chandra Pratap Singh Tanwar


Karauli, 14 Sept : Posted at Mandrayal Division of Kailadevi Karauli, Chandra Pratap Singh Tanwar is multi talented personality. 

He is an artist and paints beautiful pictures of Tigers, whenever he has spare time after duty he makes scratches of Tigers and other wild animals and paints them beautifully.

His subjects are mostly wild tigers whom he sees almost everyday in field while patrolling the area. He has also made some wall paintings in his division office walls. 


His paintings and pencil sketches are mostly based on Nature and Wildlife and mostly focused on Tigers and Wolves especially. The species are the iconic species of the area. Art is basically based on your observation and then how you put it down on a piece of paper. 


A wall painting of Tiger made by C.P. Tanwar at Aashaki Vanpal Naka Range Karanpur is one of his famous work, meanwhile painting T-118 with cubs is also one of his famous paintings.

A painting which he made a few days back of T-80 aka Toofan is also worth watching.



But most of the time his work get un-noticed, regardless of that he keeps on doing his work, social media is one the platforms where he sometimes exhibits his work. 

As there are similarly many other forest guards who are muti-talented, have other hobbies like photography, sports, sports shooting, or play music.

These artist sometimes need a larger platform, where people and officers can see and appreciate their work. Also some NGO can organise a Photography and Painting Exhibition made by the forest guards, and then people will know that how much talent is hidden in the Forest Department.

The Last Journey of T-98

The Last Journey of T-98


Sawai Madhopur-Kota, 23 July : T-98 aka MT-3 died in MHTR under suspicious conditions exactly a year ago on 23rd July 2020.

This is the infamous story about the last journey of T-98 Tiger. T-98 was a male who was living a free and adventurous life in Ranthambhore came across to T-106 female later known as MT-2 who was shifted to Mukundra Hills Tiger Reserve.

And what you call as love or infatuation in humans life it happened in their lives too. this separation couldn't kept them apart for long.

In a perilous journey unfortunately which proved his last also T-98 decided to move out of Ranthambhore in the search of T-106 which could lead him to very vulnerable situation despite of danger T-98 continued his journey. Conflict with humans was certain therefore it happened also.

He followed an unknown path walking continuously for almost 150 kilometers from Ranthambhore of Sawai Madhopur T-98 reached Mukundra's (Kota-Jhalawar) area in Feb 2019, but to much of a surprise it reached exactly where MT-2 tigress was kept in an 28 hectare enclosure.

On a morning routine patrolling monitoring team members saw pugmarks of a tiger unaware of the presence of a new Tiger in the area they informed the by then DCF that there are some pugmarks of tiger seen outside the enclosure.

Hearing this by then DCF T. Mohan Raj immediately asked the monitoring staff to check the fence of enclosure to see that whether it is broken from somewhere, suspecting that MT-1 who was in large enclosure might have broken the fence and escaped.

Thorough investigation was carried out but it was found neither the fence was broken nor MT-1 escaped. 

On next day on the surveillance cameras a new Tiger appeared standing just near the enclosure of MT-2 it's identity was confirmed as T-98 (MT-3). All the things seems to be going well as per official sources at that time.

It was decided that MT-3 male will stay outside the enclosure and a female MT-4 known as lightning in Ranthambhore will be shifted outside the enclosure at MHTR to be partners with MT-3.


They kept on ruling the area for a year or so and reproduced also but unfortunately on 23rd of July 2020 MT-3 who was found limping earlier was found dead under suspicious conditions, later inside the enclosure MT-2 also died under suspicious conditions, one cub of her was rescued but it later died, another one of her missing cub was never found.

Meanwhile MT-1 disappeared from inside the enclosure who is still missing.

A camera trap pic of MT-4 female with cub circulated on social media, search and combing operation was carried out but with no success only MT-4 was found in Injured condition but her cub was not found. 

Blunder after blunder MHTR was finished before it started. It was the last journey of MT-3 as well it was the darkest chapter in history of Tiger Reservers after Sariska when Sariska was wiped out from Tigers in 2004-05. 

Similarly the last journey of T-98 in search of T-106 will be remembered forever.
