Through this channel and media, we are working to create public awareness for the conservation of the rare Asiatic Lion, forest, flora n fauna, and biological diversity, making a modest effort to dispel widespread misconceptions about Asiatic Lions and provide correct information. As the population of lions is increasing and they are now spreading to new areas, we are making people aware by giving positive support to the government and the forest department for the conservation of lions.
The Asiatic lion (Panthera Leo Leo) is the only species found in the world in the Gir National Park of Gujarat state in India, listed as endangered on the IUCN list. Gir forest and its surrounding areas are the only habitats of lions. The 15th Asiatic lion census across 30,000 km was conducted in June 2020, with a growth rate of 28.87%, with a total lion population estimated at 674, including 159 adult males, 262 adult females, 115 subadults, and 138 cubs. (However, the current estimated population is around above 1000)
In 1904 only 11 Asiatic lions remained. But Nawab Mohabbat Khanji of Junagadh banned hunting and started conservation. Since then the lion population has been steadily increasing. The forest department is doing lion conservation with the help of local people, which is considered to be the world's biggest success story. The Asiatic lion is a royal social animal, lions and humans consider each other as friends, and they never attack humans, the lives of lions provide economic benefits to farmers and the tourism industry.
