Vidarbha has 331 tigers in a forest area of around 26,775 sq km, dissected by 84,202 km of roads, apart from irrigation canals and other projects. There have been growing instances of man-tiger conflict in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project, carried out between 2017 and 2020 using radio signals, identified 37,067 sq km, in all, of tiger corridors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They tracked the epic journey of Walker (as the tiger was dubbed) over 3,000 km from Tipeshwar Sanctuary in Yavatmal district to Dnyanganga Sanctuary in Buldhana district.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
