Aristotle once said, "There is a little bit of the marvelous in every part of Nature". If you are in search of that marvelous, India is the right destination.

The sheer variety of India's wildlife is quite stupendous. With 80 national parks and 440 sanctuaries, India possesses the second largest concentration of protected fauna and flora in the world. India is home to the largest number of tigers and one-horned rhinoceros in the world. Its climatic and geographic diversity make it the home of over 500 species of mammals and 2000 bird species, over 500 species of reptiles and amphibians and around 30000 species of insect, which are unique to the subcontinent. The country has dedicated over 90000 sq km of its total landmass to the conservation of its natural heritage constituting 3% of its land area and 12% of its total forest area.

India's bio-diversity is the result of its varied topography that allows for a wide range of climatic zones in the country. From the steaming tropical wet evergreen jungles of the Ghats in the Indian Peninsula to the alpine forests of the Himalayas, India offers an amazing range of biological and ecological diversity. The Deccan Peninsula, the Indian coasts, the Western Ghats, the Gangetic plain, the Northeastern Region, Trans Himalayas, Himalayas, Semi Arid zones, the Indian Deserts, and the Indian Islands are the main wildlife zones in India. The climate and vegetation of these areas vary from the tropical to the temperate and the artic, and is home to tigers, elephants, snow leopards, antelopes, deer, bears, jackals, hyena, wild buffalo, etc.
