Indian Flora and Fauna

Tigers are not found in Gir National Park. This park hosts Asiatic lions.

Lion-tailed macaque is a rare species of old world monkeys found only in the Western Ghats of India.

Western Ghats, stretching some 1600 km from the North of Mumbai to the southern tip of India, are a biodiversity hotspot that contain a large proportion of the country's plant and animal species, many of which are only found here and nowhere else in the world.

(3) The Forest (Conservation) Act extends to the whole of India, except the state of Jammu and Kashmir.

This is the correct answer as this statement is correct.

They are designs used in embroidery, rangoli and wall decoration in Saurashtra, Gujarat and South India.

This is the correct answer. The Gir Forest is the last remaining habitat of the Asiatic lion.

This is the correct answer as the Manas Bioreserve has not been included in the World Network of Biosphere Reserves.

Dachigam National Park is situated in Jammu & Kashmir.

All the other locations - Mudumalai (Tamil Nadu), Corbett (Uttarakhand), and Kaziranga (Assam) - are well-known elephant habitats. The question claims Dudwa is the exception, though current wildlife sources indicate Dudhwa National Park in Uttar Pradesh does have elephants in the Terai ecosystem.

India's recognized biodiversity hotspots are: Western Ghats, Eastern Himalayas, and Indo-Myanmar border region. The Western Himalayan Region is NOT classified as a biodiversity hotspot. Conservation International's global hotspot system identifies areas with high endemism and significant habitat loss, and while ecologically important, the Western Himalaya doesn't meet the specific criteria.

All three named locations are wildlife sanctuaries: Lothian Island Wildlife Sanctuary (Sundarbans, WB), Jaldapara (West Bengal - for rhinos), and Nandankanan (Odisha - botanical + zoological park). Therefore 'None of these' is correct as all listed options ARE sanctuaries.

The Rann of Kutch is famous for the Indian Wild Ass (Gudkhur). It is the only place in India where this endangered species is found in the wild. Asiatic lions are found in Gir National Park (Gujarat), not the Rann of Kutch. The Rann is a seasonal salt marsh habitat.

Simlipal National Park is located in Mayurbhanj district, Odisha - not Gujarat. Ratan Mahal (Dahod, Gujarat), Nal Sarovar (Ahmedabad, Gujarat), and Khijadiya (Jamnagar, Gujarat) are all bird sanctuaries in Gujarat. Simlipal is a tiger reserve and biosphere reserve famous for its sal forests.

Kolleru Bird Sanctuary is located in Andhra Pradesh, between the Krishna and Godavari districts. It is one of India's largest freshwater lakes and a significant Ramsar site for migratory birds. It is definitely not in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, or Karnataka.
