Located at the junction of the Aravalli and Vindhya hill range, Ranthambhore was once a hunting ground for the Maharajas of Jaipur. It was declared a wildlife sanctuary in 1957. In 1974, Ranthambore became a part of Project Tiger and in 1981. It was designated as a National Park.
Ranthambhore is famous for Bengal tigers; it is one of the best spots in India to observe tigers in their natural habitat. Tigers can be spotted during broad daylight and have been known to even hunt in full view of visitors.
This is due to their lack of fear of human presence in vehicles.
Other than tigers, one can also spot the Indian leopard, nilgai, wild boar, sambar, striped hyena, sloth bear, southern plains gray langur, rhesus macaque and mugger crocodile.
