Tadoba National Park
How Tadoba National Park Supports Local Communities
In the area around Tadoba National Park, conservation is part of daily life. It is not seen as something separate. Sudeep Mehta (42), who used to work in finance, and his father Sunil Mehta (68) are leading this effort. Sunil developed an interest in working for the environment many years ago. He and his son believe that forests will only be protected if people who live around them benefit directly. If people do not have a steady income, conservation will not be possible for long. When income is irregular, people will struggle to survive.
