Kheoni Wildlife Sanctuary in Madhya Pradesh, spanning 135 sq km, has seen a significant increase in its tiger population, now hosting 10 adults and six cubs. This growth is attributed to improved protection, rehabilitation of villagers, and a robust prey base including chital, sambar, and nilgai. Established in 1982 and expanded to Sehore district, Kheoni forms a key corridor connecting regional forests. The state government promotes eco-tourism involving local communities to support conservation and livelihoods.
