  • Status of Red Panda Ailurus Fulgens in Neora Valley National Park, Darjeeling District, West Bengal, India
    Status of Red Panda Ailurus fulgens in Neora Valley National Park, Darjeeling District, West Bengal, India Jayanta Kumar MALLICK Abstract Temperate forests, above 2,100 m asl, in the upper Neora Valley National Park, Darjeeling District, West Bengal, India, have a dense canopy and thick undergrowth of Abies, Acer, Juniperus, Lithocarpus, Magnolia, Quercus, Rhododendron, Yushania and Arundinaria, which form prime habitat of Red Panda Ailurus fulgens. But this Vulnerable species is poorly known in this park, where only one pre- liminary survey has been conducted: by the Ashoka Trust For Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) during 2006–2007. In 2009, a study was conducted to identify and evaluate Red Panda habitat in this short-listed World Heritage Site, involving literature review, questionnaire and ground surveys. Out of twenty-five forest compartments surveyed, Red Panda was sighted eleven times in five compartments (20%) within 2,350–3,170 m asl. Surveys of Red Panda, inclusion of contiguous Red Panda habitats in the park and joint park management, are specially recommended. Keywords: conservation, habitat, survey, sighting, signs, threats Introduction Red Panda Ailurus fulgens is a flagship species in worldwide in situ and ex situ conservation (Glatston in press). The western, nominate, race is endemic to Eastern Himalayas, the range form- ing a crescent from Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan, north-eastern India (northern West Bengal, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh and, appar- ently, Meghalaya) up to western Yunnan province in China and northern Myanmar (Choudhury 2001). In northern West Bengal, the Vulnerable Red Panda is found in two national parks (NP), Singalila and Neora Valley, of Darjeeling District (Saha & Sing- hal 1996, Ghose et al.

  • District Disaster Management Plan-2019,Kalimpong
    DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN-2019,KALIMPONG 1 FOREWORD It is a well-known fact that we all are living in a world where occurrence of disasters whether anthropological or natural are increasing year by year in terms of both magnitude and frequency. Many of the disasters can be attributed to man. We, human beings, strive to make our world comfortable and convenient for ourselves which we give a name ‘development’. However, in the process of development we take more from what Nature can offer and in turn we get more than what we had bargained for. Climate change, as the experts have said, is going to be one major harbinger of tumult to our world. Yet the reason for global warming which is the main cause of climate change is due to anthropological actions. Climate change will lead to major change in weather pattern around us and that mostly will not be good for all of us. And Kalimpong as a hilly district, as nestled in the lap of the hills as it may be, has its shares of disasters almost every year. Monsoon brings landslide and misery to many people. Landslides kill or maim people, kill cattle, destroy houses, destroy crops, sweep away road benches cutting of connectivity and in the interiors rivulets swell making it difficult for people particularly the students to come to school. Hailstorm sometimes destroys standing crops like cardamom resulting in huge loss of revenue. Almost every year lightning kills people. And in terms of earthquake the whole district falls in seismic zone IV. Therefore, Kalimpong district is a multi-hazard prone district and the District Disaster Management Plan is prepared accordingly.
