The correct answer is option 1 - Lion sanctuary. The Gir Forest is well-known for being the habitat of the Asiatic lions. It is the only place in India where you can find these majestic creatures in the wild. The forest is specifically designated as a sanctuary for the conservation and protection of the lion population. The Gir Forest is located in Gujarat, India, and covers a significant portion of the state. It is a diverse ecosystem with a mix of forests, grasslands, and rocky hills, providing an ideal environment for the lions to thrive. The conservation efforts in the Gir Forest have been successful in increasing the population of Asiatic lions over the years.
