The Bihar government has announced that it will be conducting a wildlife census in the Kaimur Wildlife Sanctuary in order to make the sanctuary more tiger-friendly.
The census will involve the use of camera traps and other methods to obtain an accurate count of the sanctuary’s wildlife population. The census will help the government to better understand the wildlife population in the area and will give them an idea of how to make the sanctuary more conducive to tiger growth and development.
The census is part of the larger effort by the state government to make Kaimur Wildlife Sanctuary a tiger-friendly sanctuary.
