Tourists visiting India with the purpose of wildlife sightseeing are mostly beguiled by tiger reserves that are governed by ‘Project Tiger’ and are 42 in number. Most of these reserved were the hunting grounds of erstwhile Indian maharajas. However, they were later converted into national parks for the protection of wildlife species especially tigers. Some prominent names for wildlife tours in India are Ranthambore National Park, Bandhavgarh National Park and Kanha National Park.
