The Chitwan has had a long history of conservation. For many years
it was the Royal hunting grounds for the Kings and dignitaries of Nepal
and therefore was not hunted by the general public. It did however
become a favorite spot for big game safari hunters in the late
nineteenth and early to mid-twentieth centuries. This was coupled with
a surge in local human populations following the development of
anti-malaria medicines in the mid-twentieth century.
