Abstract

This paper examines the ecotourism potential of the Todgarh Raoli Wildlife Sanctuary, newly situated under the administrative jurisdiction of the Beawar District (formerly spanning Ajmer, Pali, and Rajsamand) in Rajasthan, India. Spanning 495 km² across the central Aravalli hill ranges, the sanctuary serves as a unique ecological ecotone between the hilly forest ecosystems and the semi-arid Thar desert fringes. This study explores how integrating community-based ecotourism can serve as a catalyst for local livelihood generation, reduce human-wildlife conflict, and promote the long-term sustainable development of the 217 villages within its core and eco-sensitive zones.
