The Phase IV monitoring carried out for 214 days using 250 camera traps used at 393 locations. 16,457 images were obtained as stated by Dhakate which included 500 people for the mission.

 

Images captured from camera are fed to the software where manual identification is done to estimate the numbers. Modern method to count and distinguish the tigers is like the fingerprints of humans, and the unique stripes of every tiger.

Tiger of India

As peer the experts’ believe, the reason behind the rise of the number of tigers is the "heterogeneous and complex landscape" of the western circle that supports the species better because of automatic "niche construction".

 

The organisms modify their environment for survival in the niche construction or ecosystem engineering. During the Phase IV monitoring in December 2016, a healthy tiger population, along with some cubs was seen in Dudhwa Tiger Reserve.

 

Field Director of Dudhwa Tiger Reserve, Sunil Choudhary said, “With 51 tigers in a small area of 227 square km, Kishanpur Sanctuary have one of the densest populations of felines.”

 

With the estimation of 2,226 in 2014, of which at least 640 tigers dwell outside tiger reserves, India is a home of 70 percent of the world's free-ranging tigers.

 

As 129 tigers died in 2016 due to poaching or accidents, the booming of the number of tigers is a great sign of 2017.
