The Sasans Gir:
Gir Forest National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary, also known as The Sasan-Gir, is a protected forest area and wildlife sanctuary in Gujarat, India. It is considered one of the most major secured natural areas in Asia due to the rare animals living there, particularly the pure Asiatic Lions (Panthera leo persica).
The Gir forest area and the Asiatic lions were provided protection by as early as the start of the 20th century, which saved the lion population from going extinct as a result of trophy hunting. In 1965 the national park was entrenched with a total area of 1,412 km2 of which 1,153 km2 is fully protected as a wildlife sanctuary and 258 km2 as a national park.
It is part of the Khathiar-Gir dry deciduous forests ecoregion. In 2005 there were only 52 Asiatic lions in the wild, leaving the population on the verge of extinction, but conservation endeavours have resulted in a major population increase, with over 500 individuals now living.
There are about 106 male, 201 female and 213 sub-adult lions in the forest. Other than Africa, Gir National Park in Gujarat is the only place in the world where you can see lions roaming free in the wild.
