In The Hilly Areas of Gujarat's Ratanmahal Wildlife Sanctuary something stirred in that Forest Area in February 2025.
A Sub- Adult Male Wild Bengal Tiger stepped carefully onto the Sanctuary's Soil marking the first confirmed Tiger Sighting in Gujarat since 1982.
In May 2025, Camera Traps captured Real Time Photos of a Tiger's Movements through the Sanctuary's core as it made its first kill displaying the intention to stay for quite some time.
If a Female Wild Bengal Tigress joins this Sub -Adult Male Tiger this Breeding Pair could in all probability establish a viable population of Bengal Tigers in Gujarat which would be a milestone in this state being the only state in India to host 3 Big Cat Predators namely Wild Asiatic Lions, Wild Spotted Leopards, and now Wild Bengal Tigers.
Of utmost importance in Gujarat as far as Wild Bengal Tigers are concerned is the need to increase Prey Populations specifically in Ratanmahal Wildlife Sanctuary.
Gujarat Forest Department needs to increase patrolling at Ratanmahal Wildlife Sanctuary so that Tiger Poachers are kept at bay.
