Spot me in the wilderness &amp; guess where I am. Clue: Very much in Maharashtra,&quot; he challenged his fans.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Though the guesses ranged from the obvious to the absurd, local officials said he had gone into the Umred-Karhandla wildlife sanctuary near Nagpur and even posed with forest department staffers for a photo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Though Umred-Karhandla is not an officially designated tiger reserve, the big striped cat is known to inhabit the area which has other major tiger sanctuaries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Maharashtra has six tiger sanctuaries of which five are in Vidarbha and one in western Maharashtra&#39;s Sahyadri mountain ranges.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last August, Tendulkar was invited to become Maharashtra&#39;s Tiger Ambassador and he accepted the proposal by Forests Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to official figures cited by Mungantiwar, Vidarbha has the potential to become the &#39;Tiger Capital&#39; of India with its tiger population increasing from 169 in 2006 to 190 in 2014.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">India is currently home to 2,226 tigers, shooting up significantly from 1,706 in 2010.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
