Clinical Relevance

• Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain Geography of Tiger Reserves in India as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
• Nurses in rural posts near wildlife reserves must be proficient in managing animal-related injuries, particularly snakebites, and administering appropriate first aid and anti-venom.
• Awareness of endemic zoonotic diseases (e.g., rabies, Kyasanur Forest Disease, scrub typhus) is crucial for early diagnosis and management in populations living near forests.
• What if? A patient from a village near Pench Tiger Reserve presents with a high fever, rash, and a painless black scab (eschar) at the site of a chigger bite. The nurse should suspect scrub typhus, a common zoonotic disease in that region, and facilitate prompt antibiotic therapy with doxycycline.

How to Approach the Question

• First, carefully read the items in both List I (Tiger Reserves) and List II (States).
• Attempt to match the reserves you are most confident about. For example, Manas in Assam is a very well-known fact.
• Based on the first correct match (A-iii), check the given options. Options A and B start with (A)-(iii), so you can eliminate C and D.
• Now, compare options A and B. You only need to determine the correct location for one more reserve, like Similipal. Similipal is in Odisha (B-i).
• This confirms that the combination (A)-(iii), (B)-(i) is correct, leading you to select Option B as the answer.
