Jim Corbett National Park is a famous national park located in the state of Uttarakhand in India. Corbett National Park , now known as Jim Corbett National Park , is a famous wildlife sanctuary located in the Nainital district of the Indian state of Uttarakhand. Established in 1936, it was the first national park in India and was named after Jim Corbett, a famous British hunter and conservationist.
The park covers an area of 520 square kilometres and is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including tigers, leopards, elephants, spotted deer, and sloth bears. It is known for its efforts to protect the Bengal tiger, and it is one of the few places in India where the critically endangered species can still be found.
The history of Jim Corbett National Park can be traced back to the early 1900s when the area was known as the ' Hailey National Park .' It was named after Sir Malcolm Hailey, the Governor of the United Provinces at that time. In 1936, the park was renamed as the ' Corbett National Park ' in honor of Jim Corbett, who played a crucial role in its establishment.
