practice of protecting wild species and their habitats in order to maintain healthy wildlife species or populations and to restore, protect or enhance natural ecosystems.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Madhya Pradesh is the leading state with large intact forests and a sustainable tiger population. Madhya Pradesh, often called the\u00a0<strong><i>Heart of India<\/i><\/strong>, is a\u00a0state\u00a0in central\u00a0India. Its capital is\u00a0<strong>Bhopal<\/strong>. Madhya Pradesh was originally the <strong>largest state<\/strong> in India until November 1, 2000 when the state of\u00a0<strong>Chhattisgarh<\/strong>\u00a0was carved out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>M.P. has successfully managed to safeguard its most critical tiger habitats over the past 45 years and is an exemplar for other states wishing to secure the future of its tiger-bearing forests.\u00a0Madhya Pradesh is home to 11\u00a0national parks, including\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/bandhavgarh-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bandhavgarh National Park<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/kanha-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kanha National Park<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/satpura-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0Satpura National Park<\/a>,\u00a0Sanjay National Park,\u00a0Madhav National Park,\u00a0Van Vihar National Park,\u00a0Mandla Plant Fossils National Park,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/panna-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Panna National Park<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/pench-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pench National Park<\/a>,\u00a0Kuno National Park<\/strong> and <strong>dinosaur fossil National Park<\/strong> Madhya Pradesh. Of India\u2019s existing 53 tiger reserves, the six within M.P. have some of the most secure tiger populations on the planet. <strong>Kanha, Pench, Panna and Satpura<\/strong> now feature in the list of India\u2019s 15 finest tiger reserves.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Three tiger reserves in Madhya Pradesh \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/kanha-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kanha<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/pench-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pench<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/satpura-national-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Satpura<\/a> \u2013 have implemented MSTrIPES \u2013 a GIS-based monitoring system that records real-time patrolling data, direct and indirect evidences of large carnivores and, more importantly, human disturbances.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/\">Pugdundee Safaris<\/a> continuously strive to deliver the best possible guest experience, while still integrating the conservation of jungles and the people living around. We are motivated by the hope of reaching out to people in the remotest areas of our country, as we believe that they are the front-runners of wildlife conservation. However, maybe just a drop in the ocean we consider that we are making a significant contribution to wildlife conservation and rural economy wherever our lodges are. Pugdundee Safaris has been keenly engaged in conservation and community development activities.<\/p>\n<p>At Pugdundee we believe local people hold the future of the forests in their hands and can either help protect or destroy them. If we wish to conserve our forests, we must look after the needs of local people by helping to improve their ability to earn livelihoods. Our lodges set mostly in remote locations away from regular tourism hubs help ensure that the benefit of eco-tourism is distributed far and beyond.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"aos-init aos-animate\" data-aos=\"fade-in\">OUR STORY<\/h3>\n<p class=\"mobile-center aos-init aos-animate\" data-aos=\"fade-in\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\"><strong>Pugdundee Safaris<\/strong><\/a> is recognized as one of India&#8217;s leading responsible safari companies. With\u00a0<b>seven intimate jungle lodges in Central India<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0<b>many bespoke wilderness experiences<\/b> it presents the very best of the Indian subcontinent wildlife &amp; hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of our sustainability vision is not only the commitment to reduce our impact on the shared environment but also to contribute toward a positive change. We strive to encourage avenues for economic well-being for the host communities that we co-exist with and charm our guests with authentic &amp; holistic experiences. We adopted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pugdundeesafaris.com\/sustainability-at-pugdundee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ESG<\/strong><\/a> in 2020, the international sustainability criteria for hotels, provided by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council. In doing so, we realigned our commitments and positioned active governance, as the lever to manage our actions, monitor performance, and sustain the changes; in collaboration with our guests, tourism bodies, and industry networks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Courtesy: Vineeta Yadav | Photo Courtesy : Chinmay Deshpande<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex
