Ranthambore is known for its [Bengal tiger](/wiki/Bengal_tiger "Bengal tiger") population. During the past few years, there has been a decline in numbers due to poaching and other reasons. The number of tigers was 25 in 2005 and 48 in 2013\. As of 2022, there were 80 tigers in the park.


Is poaching the only reason for the decline in the tiger population in Ranthambore?
