It is in Amangarh in Bijnor district in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

It is home to tigers, elephants and a wide variety of other wild animals.

Amangarh Tiger Reserve was originally part of the famed Jim Corbett National Park, and after the state of Uttarakhand was carved out of Uttar Pradesh, Jim Corbett went to Uttarakhand and Amangarh remained in Uttar Pradesh.

Amangarh Tiger reserve forms an extension of and buffer to Jim Corbett National Park.

Declaration of this zone as a Tiger Reserve would go a long way in conservation efforts in Uttar Pradesh as the area would henceforth get central funds and attention from National Tiger Conservation Authority and lead to more effective management and security of this zone.
