Buxa Tiger Reserve going plastic-free.

The Forest department of the state is aiming to make Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR) in Alipurduar district of North Bengal a plastic-free zone. The tourists visiting the BTR are offered paper bags free of cost because in case they are carrying plastic bags they have to put the things inside to the paper bag. The state Forest Department will be soon introducing a dozen of Royal Bengal Tigers in BTR to maintain the tiger population there and these tigers will be brought from the forest reserves in Assam, which have similar flora and fauna as the Buxa forest.
