|April 30, 2023
SUNDERBANS tiger Reserve (STR) is set to expand its jurisdiction. Additional three ranges in the forest division in South 24 Parganas district, all of them tiger habitats, will soon be made a part of the STR, said an official of the forest department.

"Bengal is going to have a bigger tiger reserve zone in the state's mangrove region. This will intensify tiger management in the Sunderbans," a forest officer said.
The Sunderbans, the world's largest mangrove delta region, is spread over 10,000 sqkm and around 4,000 sqkm of it is in West Bengal while the rest is in Bangladesh. The Indian part of Sunderbans is split between the STR and the South 24 Parganas forest division. A formal clearance from the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) is awaited for the additional inclusion.
