The project tiger conservation programme was launched by the Government of India in 1973 to protect the tigers in India. The objective of this project was to ensure the survival and maintenance of the tiger population in India.
The population of wild tigers in India was about 40,000 in the beginning of the 20th century. By 1972, the number was reduced to about 1800. The nine tiger reserves in nine states with a total area of 13,017 sq km were set aside with a tiger population of about 300. Today there are 27 reserves spread over 17 states. Out of the total area an area of 4,936 sq km is set apart as a core zone, free from all human interference. Cattle grazing in this area has been stopped and several villages have been moved out.
