Tiger over wildlife
Critical tiger habitats made easy
identification of critical wildlife habitats, a provision in the Forest Rights Act, 2006, has made little progress since the act was notified on December 31, 2007. The reason, an environment ministry official said, was that state governments had not sent any proposal to identify and notify such habitats. Critical wildlife habitats are created in protected areas (national parks, wildlife sanctuaries) and need to be kept inviolate for wildlife conservation.
Under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, there is provision for a critical tiger habitat
