Gir National Park and the History of Saving The Asiatic Lion

Gujarat

The Conservation history of the Gir National Park generally deals with conserving the Asiatic lions, whose populace reduced drastically during the initial days of the twentieth century. Gir National Park is a scenic area marked with evergreen, and semi-evergreen flora, grasslands, scrub jungle, deciduous forests, rocky hills, and acacia. Covering an area of 1412 sq km, the park is at present one of the most eye-catching National Park of India.

The conservation of the Gir forest started back in the early 1900s. During that period, the count of lion dropped drastically to just 15 as a result of the slaughter for trophy hunting. The British viceroys presented this matter to the Nawab of Junagadh for serious attention. The Nawab then ensured the protection of the park.

However, there is more to this story, and we will take a detailed look into the matter here.

The First Attempt
You must be highly enthusiastic about participating in the Gir lion safari like any other tourist. But the saddest fact about these creatures is that their world has shrunk at present. The Gir National Park is the only natural habitat of these giant animals.
