Monika Saraswat

Database Manager, Tiger Cell

I did my Bachelor’s degree in Zoology from Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Agra & Master’s degree in Wildlife Science from Aligarh Muslim University, India. I joined the Wildlife Institute of India in 2017 & worked in the National Mission of Clean Ganga Project. Because of my interest in big cat species & their conservation, I joined the "Monitoring Tigers, Co-Predators, Prey, & Their Habitat" project (2018–2019). I joined the NTCA Tiger Cell of the Wildlife Institute of India in 2022 & working as a database manager. I am engaged in maintaining the national tiger & leopard photo databases & supervising tiger & leopard identification during the All India Tiger Estimation exercise.
