Zones 1 through 10 makes up Ranthambore National Park’s 10 safari zones. The park originally only had 5 Zones, but as it gained popularity, the additional 5 Zones were added. Zones 1 through 5 are said to be the greatest for seeing tigers, although Zones 6 through 10 also provide plenty of opportunities. The most significant of them is Zone 2, which is littered with several watering holes and where a variety of wildlife, including leopards, can frequently be seen. The Red Headed Vulture, an endangered bird, can be seen in Zone 6 Kundal, which is distinct from the other zones in terms of both its scenery and the prospects for bird watching.
Zone 6 (Kundal): shares boundaries with zone 1, and there is a good likelihood that T-39 (Noor) and her pups will be seen here as well. This zone’s landscape is very different from zones 1 through 5, with more open meadows and massive mountains as a backdrop. You get the chance to see both birds and the Indian Gazelle. (Along with the threatened Red-headed Vultures).
There have been tiger sightings in this area in the following locations: Kala Pani, Saran Ka Pattha, KhaliKi Baori, Khabli, and Soleshwar.T-34, T-39, T-57, and T-8 are the other Tigers visible in this picture. Livestock does wander in this area because it is adjacent to a settlement, and Kumbha (T-34) has reportedly killed and eaten cattle in the past.
Zone 9: This zone is situated on the banks of the Chakal River and is around 45 minutes away from the Tiger Reserve. T-42 (Fateh), an aggressive male who is known to chase the vehicles of the forest service and has also been seen on trap cams murdering a sloth bear, resides here. In addition to T-42, T-59 is also visible. Aquatic birds, sloth bears, and caracals live in this area as well.
