Honored with the title of a national park in 1936, Jim Corbett – The Famous Abode of the Tigers is Asia’s very first national park. However, the conservation of this land started way back in 1868, as it was the time when the British Forest Department excluded agricultural activities and operation of cattle stations here.
Since then, there has been no looking back. Initially, this park was named after Sir Malcolm Hailey, the Governor of United Provinces, and thus, was popularly known as ‘Hailey National Park’. The saga doesn’t end here; within a short span of time, it was again renamed as ‘Jim Corbett National Park’ to honor Edward James Jim Corbett—the man who contributed a lot to the establishment of the park.
The conservation thus started, always saw an upward graph. In 1973, Corbett National Park stood as the first Tiger Reserve under Project Tiger – an initiative to protect the big striped cats.
