  • The wildlife of Rajasthan is as magnificent and varied as the geography and cultural traditions of the state. The arid climate and sparse vegetation has helped the survival of some unique species of animals and plants in the forests of Rajasthan. The lakes of the state support many species of birds. The Rajasthan wildlife tours are the ideal way to systematically explore this fascinating aspect of tourism in Rajasthan.

    There are a number of protected forests in Rajasthan that offer a safe home to a large number of wildlife species. These include some of the best known wildlife sanctuaries and National Parks. The chief among these are the Ranthambore National Park, Sariska National Park, Desert National Park, and Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary. Most of these protected forests were previously the hunting grounds of the erstwhile rulers of Rajasthan. Once upon a time, tigers were abundant here, but indiscriminate hunting by the royalty and the British for sport have resulted in a catastrophic decline in tiger population. Tigers are now under protection in tiger reserves like Sariska and Ranthambore, but the big cats still face the threat of extinction as poaching continues to be a menace.

    The species that you can expect to spot on the Rajasthan wildlife tours include tigers, leopards, jungle cat, civet, mongoose, hyena, wild boar, sloth bear, sambhar, four horned antelope, spotted deer, nilgai, gaur, langur, and the rhesus macaque. The black bucks and the great Indian bustard are among the severely threatened species that are found in Rajasthan.

    The lakes of Rajasthan attract a large number of migratory birds from far off lands, including Siberia. The Keoladev Ghana National Park, better known as the Bharatpur bird sanctuary, is famous for the flocks of Siberian cranes and other migratory bird species that arrive here during winter.

    The Rajasthan wildlife tours also include exciting safaris that may include exploring the wildlife by jeep or elephants. Accommodation is often provided in the forest guest houses. The modern luxurious tents and log huts are becoming increasingly popular and are offered as accommodation by many tour operators.

    Many wildlife tours of Rajasthan will also take you to the interesting locations around the wildlife sanctuaries or National Parks that you will be visiting. The crafts and cultural traditions of the local folk are as much a part of these wildlife tours as the wildlife found in the parks.
