Sarsika Tiger reserve at one time had no tigers left. In 2009, 5 of them were relocated from Ranthambore. Although, it was out bad luck that we were not able to see any one of them during our trip.

| Located near Alwar, Rajasthan - Sariska is a part of the Aravalli Hills |
 |
| Locals collect dry woods from the areas nearby |
 |
| With strict poaching laws, limited visitors are allowed to enter daily. This encourages wildlife to be out in the open more freely without any danger. |
 |
| The Safari was quite adventurous with our jeep turning narrow paths so dangerously. Thanks to our 'First-time driver'. |
 |
| It was really hot but the calmness of the birds cooled us down. |
 |
| Keep the river streams clean ! Don't bathe in it ! |
 |
| They look at you with hostile eyes and your cameras are often their preys. |
 |
| With so much deforestation in the past, the forest is beginning to revive. |
 |
| It's summer time and every drop is precious. |
 |
| Sun-baked |
 |
| Barren and ironical |
 |
| I think they both are arguing over a female antelope ;) |
 |
| Crocodiles await |
 |
| Peaceful co-existence |
 |
| Power Nap or Is it ? Watch out |
 |
| Bear Grylls would have found some protein here for sure ! |
 |
| Perfect weather for a nice dip in the lake |
 |
| Attitude huh ? |
 |
| Lost for direction? Ask the Mountains |
 |
| Age of loneliness |
Your pictures tell a thousand words. Beautiful:)

ReplyDelete@Koyna, @magiceye - Thanks a lot :)
ReplyDelete@Madhu - Hopefully the numbers will increase. We were told that some tigresses were being transferred from Ranthambore to Sariska.
This is truly a great read for me. I have bookmarked it and I am looking forward to reading new articles. Keep up the good work!
