Maharashtra Great Indian Bustard Sanctuary is one of the places in India where one can spot the gigantic and enormously beautiful Indian bustards (Ardeotis nigriceps). The sanctuary happens to be discovered by Mr. B.S.Kulkarni in 1972. In 1979, the Government of Maharashtra declared Great Indian Bustard Sanctuary as a wildlife reserve with the sole objective of conserving the rarest species of Great Indian Bustard which are endangered with extinction. Even late Dr. Salim Moizzudin Abdul Ali, India's best-known ornithologist, paid a visit here for some research. Many efforts are been made by the famous ornithologist and bird lovers for the protection of the park.
