Kanha Tiger Reserve is one of the oldest wildlife sanctuaries in India. It is especially known for its population of tigers. The reserve has always striven to preserve the population of wildlife, especially tigers and it has been doing this for more than seven decades now. This has only been made possible owing to the constant efforts and hard work of the personnel at the sanctuary. To give you an idea, this is what they have to deal with:

Kanha Tiger Reserve’s Security Personnel During Monsoon Patrolling

According to a post made by the official handle of the Kanha Tiger Reserve on X (formerly known as Twitter), the security personnel’s job here is not a walk in the park. In a video shared in the same post, five personnel are seen struggling to cross a stream of water.

Given the context of the post, it seems that the stream is because of rain in the sanctuary. Personnel go on Monsoon Patrolling in order to ensure the safety of all, especially the wildlife. And this is how difficult such patrolling can be.

In the caption of the video, the reserve highlights how monsoon patrolling is not easy and that it requires strength and courage as well as a passion for duty. Truly, watching these heroes do their job is indeed inspiring.
