Environment & Ecology Maps for UPSC: National Parks, Tiger Reserves & Ramsar Sites
National parks, tiger and elephant reserves, Ramsar wetlands, biodiversity hotspots, mangroves and forest cover of India — plotted on India reference maps.
Environment map study pairs every protected area with its state, ecosystem and flagship species. Read national parks in four regional sheets, then connect tiger reserves, Ramsar wetlands, biodiversity hotspots and forest cover. Counts and lists change, so note the update date rather than memorising a frozen tally.
