Abstract:

Protected areas are vital for the conservation of biodiversity, serving as sanctuaries for threatened species and ecosystems. This study investigates the role of Ranthambhore and Sariska National Parks in Rajasthan, India, as crucial biodiversity hotspots. Through field surveys, ecological assessments, and a review of conservation strategies, this research highlights the rich biodiversity of both parks, emphasizing the presence of key species such as the Bengal tiger and Indian leopard. While Ranthambhore showcases significant success in population recovery of these apex predators, Sariska faces challenges related to habitat degradation and human-wildlife conflict. The analysis reveals that effective conservation measures, including community involvement and habitat restoration efforts, are essential for maintaining biodiversity within these protected areas. Despite ongoing threats from poaching and climate change, the findings underscore the importance of Ranthambhore and Sariska as integral components of regional biodiversity conservation strategies. This study advocates for enhanced monitoring and adaptive management practices to ensure the long-term sustainability of these ecosystems.
