How Nepal is saving its tigers - BBC World Service Documentaries
In 2010, the Himalayan nation of Nepal was one of 13 countries to commit to doubling its wild tiger populations by 2022. In the decade since, Nepal is the only country to have achieved that goal.

Over that time, other iconic species including rhinos and elephants have also seen an increase. What's behind the success? And what does it mean for the communities living with the tigers? The BBC's Asia editor Rebecca Henschke reports in "Return of the tigers" from Bardiya National Park.

I am surprised to hear the man who got attacked in the face by a tiger say that the tigers also have the right to live. I salute your courage, sir!
That guy is the real deal.
Real gorkhali
He is legend, after listening his story hollywood superstar Leonardio DiCaprio gifted his own sunglass while his Nepal visit in 2010.
That's how nepali are..
Same here
The man was attacked and still said this world is not only for the humans and every species has the right to live . Person's bravery and kindness is of next level.
Just because he is Hindu
It’s true, if a human attacks me and doesn’t kill me doesn’t mean they should be killed. Same and especially for animals since they don’t know any better.
Its sanatana dharma
@@vasilisconstantinides4476 but people usually don't say that. People are often selfish. And it's appreciated that he is selfless ❤
@@prashanthak8286Nepali gorkhali sanatani 💪
This man said "why should humans only live? We have every right to protect our animals species" huge freaking respect to him.
Don't enjoy anything without it all being planned out first. Did this video even make sense before I wrote this comment, or was it just pure terror?
@@kamranrowshandel6395 U seemed to be hit in head
What a dummy that guy is
Wonder if you would say that if your 🥎 🥎 were in its mouth..
Loosing an eye after a Tiger attack and still having a broad and warm heart over tigers and their conservation is something that is beyond the explanation.. He is a living super hero... Huge respect for him.. ❤Namaste 🙏
yo nam ta kata sune sune jasto po lagyo ta :p
Manusia berhati emas❤
The young Captain Ayush Jung Bahadur Rana is my nephew and the way he carried himself in the documentary made me a very proud Uncle. I wish him a very bright future in the Nepalese Army.
Don't enjoy anything without it all being planned out first
Proud Moment
Wonderful young man
I’m impressed as well 🇹🇹
Does he have some Chinese blood in him? Jung is a Chinese name, isn't it?
That man who got attacked has a big heart respect to everyone involved in the conservation of tigers 💖
@SAWAN SJB RANA oh I didn’t realize the mistake thank u for correcting me
Gotta love the effort to realize the importance of the Tiger👍
As a Nepali, this video makes me so freaking proud..... Respect for our Nepalese Army for their courage and determination.... A big salute to Mr. Bhadai Tharu for his ideologies... hope it gets better for everyone living in the area... Jai Nepal.
Jai Gorkha🇳🇵
Praise the Nepalese army and civilian they r a proud people blessings to Nepal
Nepal has no army, your protection is guaranteed by Indian army in case of any war… what you saw were nature conservancy force.
I bet you don't live anywhere near where Tigers roam. Just like the foreigners who give financial backing. The guy who lost his eye may be stupid but at least one can say he practices what he preaches. All Tiger lovers should swap with the local villagers and live around the killers they want to preserve so much, let's see how that goes. The best part is teaching kids to always walk with a stick, as if that does anything when a 600 pound tiger jumps on them. It's like a South Park sketch, only these are real people that will die.
is she pronouncing Nepal right? i am from Bangladesh and curious. i thought it sounds like nepaal, but she is pronouncing nepoul?
He lost an Eye and still He said the Raw words with Real meaning. He is Superman.
Bravest Armies. Nepal army is Patrolling these place. Love From Germany ❤️ Jay Nepal 🇳🇵
Thanks ❤
@@archanasinghthakuri why thanking ?
@@grimzapubgofficial1490 because she is nepali
@@grimzapubgofficial1490 why not? Gaurav is sending praise for Nepali Army and love from Germany; Archana is thanking for the love😊
@@NewZman23 ✌
The reason why the Nepal is called the county of peace, Big Salute to Nepalese army who is protecting wild species & human beings. Others country army engaging in war I'm so proud that the our country army is making earth better place to live that's the great example of humanity.
Nepal should protect its border and land from india
@@warhammer8403 Doesn't matter you fool.
@@warhammer8403 well said hope that time will come soon
Nepal should aware of Chinese debt trap policy.. you have the example of Pak,S.Lanka,Many African countries. India never occupied other countrie's territory. China has the border disputes with 17 countries. They have the policy of expansionism. As a geo politics graduate from Ireland i know how things work. 🇮🇪♥️🇮🇳♥️🇳🇵
@@Stark.......china will not so anything here bro.. Indian people's are great n great relationship with us .. but indian politicians tryin to invaded us... history n current situation same from india.. that's sad part for each other.. when modi comes first time in Nepal 🇳🇵 that video u can see there is no hate .. but he did lots of mistake .. we hate him... But personally we civilians are both side lots of heart to heart connected.. so that reason we can't hate India.. but we hate politics
Respect to Nepal from India
❤❤❤
Without humans like him, wildlife and planet Earth has no chance. These individuals are unusual n to be respected, supported and honored.
Bhadai Tharu, The person with the severed eyes is wearing Leonardo Dicaprio glasses that Leo gave it to him. Glad that he's still rocking it.
“..a challenging job to maintain peace between two species”. LOVEE how this was said ❤
Thats because people are to afraid. We buy our food at the shop and don't even realise that we ourselves are also food for other species thats where it goes wrong. You saw the outrage of the community they don't understand that we won't all survive and become old, there is no species on earth that has it so comfortable as us and we still complain and getting angry when a very few get eaten by other species. we have it so good but we fear death way to much we should understand that its part of life and loss also teaches humans something about love.
Hats off to Nepal,...they are our friend country....am from India 🙏
thank you for this documentary ...The government of Nepal should take care of the villagers and those who are risking their lives for the betterment of wildlife .. Thank you . jay Nepal
Huge respect to all the people living in that region and the forest department, army and those who are involved in protecting the wildlife.
Love Nepal from Pakistan
No you dont. You saying it just to make India jealous.
@@greatnews5 Dont be jealous
@@greatnews5 And you Hate them isn't is?
@@greatnews5 no wtf
Love pakistan from nepal❤❤
The Neplese government should shift the nearest villages to the national park to other safe places so that both the people and the animals could live happily. Anyways, luv from Nepal 🇳🇵
iam just speechless that I want to cry 😢 keeping little bit tears aside iam happy that Nepalese army were doing so good how can I say thank-you no words to say thank yoi Nepal Army ❤️❤️❤️
Nepalese only praise and hype those nepali who are serving as Indian army and British gorkha. In reality we should give most respect for the Nepalese army, who work for our country not for others. Hats off nepali army❤️❤️
Indeed. Give due respect to our Army. They can not be compared with mercenaries
@@roopnarayanpradhan-lalitap6302 exactly but our society only happy with mercenaries
@shisir thapa don't mess with India we will remove you from the map
@@shisirthapa2760 there is no difference between maoist, army or police. They don't care about people.
Any tax payer shud be respected...those Nepali gurkhas in Britain ,India, Brunei. Pay more taxes than others...
Wonderful Nepal.. It's a real heaven.. Will travel there soon🥰

The way Ayush Sir spoke English it's gives another level of vibes ❤️
Get out of this colonial mindset. There’s nothing special about speaking a particular language.
@@TJSaw i didn’t gave a shit to you ok go
leo messi never speaks english so he is most hated person in argentina!!!!! japanese korean dont now english so they are poor and very back in technology😂😂😂😂
He really said that 😳 tigers also have a right to live After so many scars as an example how much Tiger can harm Woah Hats Off dude Thats why they say Nepalese have so big heart ❤🇳🇵 Jai Gorkha
thank you Nepal army for doing their job great.
Proud of Nepal…
'Every species have the right to live' world is not only for 'humans' And That man's word literally gives me a goosebumps STW ❤ PEACE
Lost an eye, but didn't lose his humanity and compassion. LEGEND
I have seen the entire video, it’s great work for preserve tigers and other spices.I would like to huge thanking military personnel , and other villagers who works for tirelessly.Moreover, the British journalist she is phenomenal ,who was broadcasting for Nepal’s majestic national park. Special thanks for journalist for your extraordinary work.
Wow, selute to Nepal and Nepali people. Congratulations guys now I'm confident enough that now we can bring prosperity to big cats in subcontinent. I wish we can create a big corridor for tigers from India- Nepal to China. Love you Nepali people from rajasthan India. ☺️🤗
Nepalese Armies are not appericiated enough by us enough. Indian & British armies get so much respect but reality is Nepalese armies are working hard to protect our motherland. I also think they was way less corrupted than police.
True I have always respected our Nepali armies.
I don't know how could I appreciate for the thing our country have achieved. This is a huge accomplishment for our country. I would like to thanks everyone for taking part in such a great work.
Visited dudhwa National park on Indo nepal border and got lucky to see tiger cubs crossing roads with their mother.........Saw a couple of rhinos also .. Truly a majestic experience watching them
Never seen such a big heart as him.. So humble and so kind loving person.. May God bless him
The man's words touched my heart 🤧🥺💕💕 He was attacked by Tiger still he has humanity ❤️As a Nepalese who Foster and rescue cats and kittens, I'm so happy seeing this 🥺🤧💕Tigers are amazing creatures of Nature.
Feeling so proud! Thank you for those armies who have been protecting them hats off
Long live my country Nepal 🇳🇵
Overall its a great documentary
Me too, i ve been there one year ago, one of the villagers said that around 20 -22 people get killed every year by tiger attack in those villages around national park. I think government of Nepal and other INGOs should collaborate together to resolve this issue, otherwise situation might be more harsh in the future days.
One of the proud moment for Nepal. The dedication and passion for the betterment of wildlife so be continue in coming years too. JAI NEPAL 🇳🇵🇳🇵
Huge respect to the warriors who are conserving and protecting animals as well as humans out there 👏
Thanks for this wonderful video.The man who lost his eye his a True Legend 👍 👏 ❤️. If u have more people like him the world will be a better place...So sorry for the people who lost their life because of yhe tigers 🐅 😢.
Tiger attacked man with one eye lost is a golden heart man
The documentary, the way it's shot, edited and presented is a cinematic masterpiece.
Ok sissy
Hats off to all those armies rangers expert researchers local people .... Bringing balance between human and wild life is a necessity....thank you....real heroes
The more i see about Nepal, the more impressed i get.
Huge respect to Nepalese🇳🇵Army💯
It's inspiring to see how someone got attacked by a tiger works for tiger conservation. Much respect for him. Also, glad to see the number of tigers are increasing. Hope the government, military, conservatives, and the people in the area would work together to save this majestic creature. Much love from SL
We are spendig lots of our energy to protect the nature please you world come for joining us . Protect the nature 🇳🇵 Protect the ecosystem .🇳🇵🇳🇵
Great news the return of the numbers of tigers in Nepal.Kudos to the Nepaleses. Poaching / hunting should be banned.Shame on the those who killed tigers for pleasure. I love wild life .
Ayush Jung Sir is so well spoken. Kunai kunai thau ma ta capable manche ni pugeko raicha.
Captain is so well spoken 👏 sending love and salute to all the people who are working and risking their lives 🙏
I HAD SEEN RHINO AND ITS BABY THE DAY I WENT THERE...♥️
that's luck🥰
This is freaking proud moment for all Nepalese peoples😱❤️
I am from Bangladesh, see this video I know lot of things about tigers. It looks like educational video for us. How the civil are struggle and do their daily work with this environment .Really they deserve respect from us.We have also a forest named Sandarban where thousands of tiger reside there. It is one of the beautiful forest in Bangladesh.
My interest in Nepal has increased.
Binod Tharu generiosty and commitment is seemingly endless. Government should compensate to the community people . Kudos to the rangers, armies , local people for their sacrifices and efforts.
Great job guys and hat's off for your unconditional love towards nature.
That man with one eye is so grateful person to be with....felt the vibes🤘
Love u Nepal from Pakistan
If Nepal can succeed in something rest of the world has not been able to, she can thrive in many other areas as well. JAI NEPAL
Thank you to BBC for producing the story of Tigers Conservation in Nepal. It is very urgent to reduce the Tiger and human conflicts of buffer zones and to reduce this conflicts people of the buffer zone must have alternative economic opportunities for their livelihood. I want to request to all animal lovers and adventure seekers people of the world to visit Bardia National parks to see Tigers and contribute to the sustainable conservation of endangered specie from the world.
Thankyou for protecting Gods animals! 🙏 God bless you all for helping these beautiful animals!!
My district Parsa, saves a lot of tigers Salute to Nepal Salute to Gorkhali🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
The most gorgeous animal in the world, the magnificent tiger!
huge respect for this man.
The population of tigers have also doubled in India.....I am so happy that indian and Nepalese government have nailed this TIGER initiative......but I still hope they can do more for the local populations impacted in the conserved areas.........nice documentary
Thanks for this video...feel sorry for affected. Keep up your great work Nepal army 👏
Yes. The world belongs to all the creatures. I am so happy to see such competent people working together. I am sure they will find a way to decrease the number of tiger attacks without harming tigers. And, the footage of the Queen and Late king Mahendra disappointed me a little. Killing animals for pleasure is not acceptable
Never thought BBC would show queen of Britain in a tiger hunting expedition. Appreciated for small miracle.
Queen Elizabeth of Britain and King Mahendra of Nepal hunting wildlife together. Something we will never witness again. It was considered a noble thing to do but thank goodness both countries now see the error of their ways. Hindsight is a great thing 😊
Army Captain speaks so nicely.
Nobody mentioned Leonardo DiCaprio. His contribution should not be neglected.
Born to be wild spirit truly great characters are found in Nepal 🇳🇵 - tigers and living legends. God bless Nepal. Wild and beautiful 🐯
I congratulate Nepal and all those that worked so hard on being the only country out of the 13 to achieve their goal to double their tiger populations. I'm so glad to see tiger populations coming back. I also feel for the people that live there. It must be like living on the razors edge in some ways. Attempting to eek out a living and not get ate at the same time would have to cause a few night terrors! The soldiers and te conservationists have their hands full, but seem to be VERY qualified to do their jobs and take great pride in it. I hope they find a solution that all get to live peacefully. As for the gentleman that got attacked and lost an eye, I am so proud of you for standing strong and staying true to your beliefs. You are an inspiration and a great champion.
Huge respect to Nepal 🇳🇵💯
Nepal is just awesome county If it was strong economic country then by now it would contribute a great in other wildlife too❤️
Captain has passed Para- Commando Training. That's a very difficult task indeed. Salute!
Such a beautiful documentary with beautiful wild mammals & a beautiful narrator thank you !!!
Woww great news about my beautiful country Nepal 🇳🇵 thank you so much BBC WORLD ❤️❤️❤️
Tigers are such a beautiful creature. They need to be saved at any cost. Kudos to Nepal government.
Nepal is doing great work on preservation of rare animals and it's pride moment for us as Nepalese. Thank you BBC
My great respect for the village people who lives with the tigres in the forest it takes curridge and good feelings for the tiger in the habitat that they shared great work with big risk my compliments that they live there lives and protect the tiger godsblessings for all overthere .

I got no words when he had lost his one eye by tiger attack and still saying tiger also have right to live ..with simplicity here again simplicity had won against the world ..may be he had lived fullest life in the lap of the nature and he definitely knows the value of nature and its creation.... a big solute to such hero who still believe in humanity..
