Uttarakahnd tigers now have a master representative. Captain of the Indian Cricket team, Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been chosen as the brand ambassador of Uttarakhand Tiger Conservation Mission. The skipper was also appointed honorary Wildlife Warden of Corbett National Park. The announcement was made by Uttarkahnd Chief Minister, Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank. "We believe Dhoni's association with Jim Corbett National Park and with tiger conservation will help the campaign in a big way," the CM said after Dhoni accepted the offer.



Dhoni has succeeded Bhijendra Singh, a wildlife conservator who has been Corbett National Park’s honorary Wildlife Warden for the last 30 years. The cricketer even signed a memorandum with the state Chief Minister to this effect.

The cricketer was attending the 'Tiger Agenda' event that demands greater consolidation of the Corbett landscape and protecting corridors along the Terai Arc of the National Park.

“I look forward to the corridor of Corbett-Rajaji being widened and strengthened at the earliest. I am delighted to accept the honorary wildlife warden post which has been offered to me by the Uttarakhand Chief Minister," he said. He further added, "Uttarakhand has some of the best forests in India. I have come specially to Dehradun to request the Chief Minister to do whatever is in his capacity to ensure a safe environment for tigers and to commend him on the work done on the tiger protection,"



Dhoni also expressed his concern over the illegal encroachments in Corbett Tiger Reserve and Rajaji National Park animal corridor at Ramnagar close to the periphery of the park and violation of the Wildlife Protection Act by some of the forest lodges near Corbett National Park, who use their property for illegal activities such as rain dance, bike races and wedding parties which seriously affect the wildlife at the National Park. "Illegal encroachments will impede wildlife conservation. I urge the Uttarakhand CM to do needful," he said.



Uttarakhand is famous for Corbett National Park, one of the oldest and most famous National Parks of India, which has the highest tiger density among all National Parks in the country. The state is also famous for Rajaji National Park which is known for its tiger as well as elephant population and is called as the Northern Limit of Asian Elephants.
