The fauna was very rich those days and the British Government gave rewards for killing the tigers in this vicinity. During that period hundreds of tigers and cubs were killed to control the tiger population because some them had become man-eaters. Now for your surprise there are only 13 tigers left in this region. This was possible because Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary came into existence in the year 1998. later Anshi National park also came into existence in the year 2003, which led to the protection of wildlife in the region. There are about 45 Elephants in this region. It is said that the elephants are not the residents of Dandeli forest because they migrated from Mysore and due to some or the other reason some could not return back to Mysore and became residents of Dandeli Forest.
