History:
The national park is best known for its large tiger population. As the tourism and population in the nearing villages of the ranthambore increased, there were more frequent poaching and human – animal interactions in the area. The government of India allotted the area of 60 mi2 of the park as the tiger sanctuary which later became what Ranthambore national Park is now.
