  • An Overview of Asian Elephants in the Western Ghats, Southern India: Implications for the Conservation of Western Ghats Ecology
    Journal of Threatened Taxa | www.threatenedtaxa.org | 26 October 2013 | 5(14): 4854–4870 Review Western Ghats Special Series ISSN An overview of Asian Elephants in the Western Ghats, Online 0974–7907 southern India: implications for the conservation of Western Print 0974–7893 Ghats ecology OPEN ACCESS Nagarajan Baskaran Present address: Department of Zoology & Division of Wildlife Biology, AVC College (Autonomous) Mannampandal, Mayiladuthurai, Tamil Nadu 609305, India Asian Nature Conservation Foundation, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Sciences, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560012, India [email protected] Abstract: The Western Ghats region is a global biodiversity hotspot and the source of all the major rivers of peninsular India. The conservation of this region is important for the biodiversity it harbours, and for ecological functions that include climate stability, erosion control, clean water and air, which are essential to safeguard economic growth, social stability and quality of life for the people of peninsular India. Possessing a unique diversity in topography, climate, vegetation, faunal communities, endemism and human communities, the Western Ghats is also known for its spectacular assemblage of larger mammals, including 25% of the global population of Asian Elephants. There are four major landscapes in the Western Ghats: (1) Uttara Kannada, (2) Brahmagiri-Nilgiris, (3) Anamalai-Nelliyampathy-High Range, and (4) Periyar-Agasthyamalai, spread across 30,000km2, harbouring a minimum 10,000 elephants in six different populations with signs of an increasing trend in some populations. The second landscape (Brahmagiri-Nilgiris) with over 50% of the Ghats’ elephant population, along with its contiguity to the Eastern Ghats elephant landscape, forms the single largest global population of Asian Elephants.
