Uttar Pradesh Reports Growth in Tiger Population
The number of tigers in Uttar Pradesh is growing!
From 2018 to 2022, the tiger population increased.
The government says this is because they are taking good care of the tigers' homes, keeping watch over the forests, and getting help from local people.
A program called 'Bagh Mitra' uses an app to help people and tigers live together peacefully.
More events are planned to celebrate the tigers.
Uttar Pradesh's tiger population increased from 173 in 2018 to 222 in 2022.
