Defenders of Ranthambhore
<p>Tiger man of India and the architect of Rajasthan’s Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve, <a href="https://www.sanctuarynaturefoundation.org/article/meet-fateh-singh-rathore">Fateh Singh Rathore</a> dedicated his entire life to the tigers of the park. Between 1973 and the mid-1980s, under his watchful eyes, tiger numbers steadily rose, and Ranthambhore became a feather in the Project Tiger cap. Here he is seen with <a href="https://www.sanctuarynaturefoundation.org/award/g-v-reddy">G.V. Reddy</a> and <a href="https://www.sanctuarynaturefoundation.org/award/valmik-thapar">Valmik Thapar</a> in Ranthambhore.</p>
