RVT 3 in Ramgarh Vishdhari to give birth

Bundi: A good news from Ramgarh Vishdhari is expected in the beginning of March. Successful mating of tiger RVT 1 and tigress RVT 3 (T 119) had been reported. Now changes are visible in the physical structure of tigress RVT 3. The tigress mostly remains around Bandra Pole.

Tiger RVT 1 is usually found hanging around Govardhan Mountain. Tigress T 119 was shifted from Ranthambore to Ramgarh on August 20 last year and got its new name RVT 3 in Ramgarh Vishdhari.

This will be the second time that cubs will be born to a tigress in such a short time of shifting to the new reserve.

Earlier RVT 2 had delivered three cubs here. At present, there is a family of six tigers, including a tiger, two tigresses and three cubs. One more tigress will be shifted here from Ranthambore next week to incourage the increase in Tiger Population. Dy Forest Conservator Sanjeev Sharma is monitoring all this.

Ramgarh Vishdhari Wildlife Sanctuary was designated a tiger reserve on 5th July 2021 as it was granted in-principle approval by NTCA.

It was given a status of wildlife sanctuary in 1982 under a state act named Rajasthan Wild Animals and Birds Protection Act, 1951.
