Answer 1

Hint: 70 percent of the tigers in the world are in India. These project tiger areas cover a total surface area of 71027.10 $km^{ 2 }$. In the present, the number of Tiger Reserves has risen from nine reserves in 1973.

Complete answer:
Project Tiger was initiated as a conservation initiative by the Indian government. It had been released during Smt. Indira Gandhi's tenure. She was the Prime Minister of India in 1973. To that end, a number of tiger reserves and zones have been established.
The project's goal was to maintain an optimal population of Bengal tigers in their natural habitats and protect them from extinction as well. Since the Bengal Tiger is India's national animal, this project aims to curb the big cats' declining population and work towards growing their numbers.
At present, there are 50 tiger reserves in India. This is regulated by the National Tiger Conservation Authority's Project Tiger.
There are up to 2500 tigers according to the 2016 count estimate.
So, the correct answer is, 'More than 16'.

Note: The Tigers are valued for their science, economic, aesthetic, cultural, and environmental values. The tiger reserve was established to conserve them as a national heritage and for education, for all time areas of biological significance. Rules should be taken for the conservation of biodiversity. Bor is the smallest tiger reserve in the world, located at Maharashtra. Nagarjunsagar-Srisailam Tiger Reserve is India's largest tiger reserve, in Andhra Pradesh state.
