From just 12 lions in the early 1900s, Gir’s conservation efforts have helped the population

grow to over 600 today,

making it one of India’s

greatest wildlife

success stories.

Gir is one of the few places in India where you can spot the

infamous honey badger,

a tough and fearless

creature known for taking on predators much larger
