Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday hailed the steady rise in population of Asiatic lions at Gujarat’s Gir wildlife sanctuary and also praised the role of tribal communities in the surrounding areas in preserving their natural habitat.
The AVS, which is under the National Parks Board, said that the four lions, as well as an African lion at the Singapore Zoo, had exhibited mild signs of sickness including coughing, sneezing and lethargy on Saturday and Monday respectively.
This sanctuary and the surrounding areas are the only habitats that support the Asiatic lion.
