Option 4 : Nepal

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Nepal.

  • For the first time, Nepal and India undertook a joint tiger census in their national parks, forests and protected areas adjoining the two countries using a globally-recognised method from November 2017.
  • Conservation authorities and experts installed cameras in various locations in tiger habitats as well as in buffer zones to capture and track the movements of the big cat.
  • Nepalese and Indian conservation officials decided to use the camera tapping procedure to avoid chances of repeated counting of the same tiger.
  • The Chitwan National Park in Chitwan and Parsa Wildlife Reserve of Nepal are adjacent to the Balmiki Tiger Reserve in Bihar.
  • Likewise, Nepal’s Bardiya National Park adjoins India’s Katarniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary, while the Shuklaphant National Park in Nepal adjoins India’s Dudhwa Tiger Reserve.
