NATIONAL STUDBOOK OF INDIAN WOLF (CANIS LUPUS PALLIPES) – II EDITION NATIONAL STUDBOOK OF INDIAN WOLF (CANIS LUPUS PALLIPES) – II EDITION FOREWORD Habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation, retaliatory killing coupled with disease threats have rendered Indian wolves prone to extinction. Despite protection measures in recent times free ranging populations continue to show declines; therefore, maintenance of viable ex-situ populations for ensuring their long-term persistence remains imperative. Scientific management that ensures their long-term genetic viability and demographic stability can ensure effective ex-situ conservation of Indian wolves. Pedigree information contained in studbooks forms the basis for this effort.

THE BEHAVIOUR OF INDIAN GRAY WOLF ( Canius lupus pallipes ) IN CAPTIVITY AT SAKKARBAUG ZOO JUNAGADH, GUJARAT, INDIA MAITRY S. DAVE & JATIN V. RAVAL Zoology Lab, Department of Life Sciences, Bhakta Kavi Narsinh Mehta University, Junagadh, Gujarat, India ABSTRACT The present study was carried out on the behaviour of Indian gray wolf (Canius lupus pallipes) in captivity at Sakkarbaug Zoo, Junagadh, Gujarat, India. The Indian gray wolf is critically endangered species and fall into schedule- 1. Total ten wolves of 3-4 years old were observed. Ninety minutes observation was taken every week at morning time. Walking, resting, facial, resting alert, playing, fighting, standing, eating, etc. behaviours were studied. The observations of various behaviour activities of wolves we rerecorded from July 2018 to January 2019. Two different types of behaviours like active behaviour and inactive behaviours observed with two different patterns as 1) Wolf was solo in captivity and 2) Wolf pack in captivity. The time slice method was used. The wolves’ activity was registered in each ten Article Original minutes, nine times in one and half hour at morning. Twelve types of behavioural activities were recorded in the captive wolves. They were displaying different types of activities. Peaceful sharing of food with one another without competition was found in wolves. The newly born pups and mother were kept in separate cage from other captive wolves’ cage for their better survival and growth.

  • Central Zoo Authority -- List of Rec Zoos.Pmd
    Central Zoo Authority and Indian Zoos: A Current Overview Sally Walker Central Zoo Authority (CZA) (estab. Feb. 1992) is now a dozen years old. The Authority exists at the pleasure of the Central Government, which has reconstituted it four times and will undoubtedly do so again in the immediate future. CZA was set up to tackle many problems, among the most important, the rampant proliferation of zoos without adequate plan or principles, or even financial backing. Many of the then ~ 350 zoos had been set up for political reasons, to satisfy the whims of a Minister or other official and left to deteriorate after the founding function. It is very easy to open a zoo compared to closing one but this task -- closing zoos that could not meet a minimum standard -- was given to the fledgling Authority This was, part of a process, also led by CZA, to provide oversight for zoo management and, after evaluation, to give technical and monetary support and time, so that the zoos could improve. In this process, which is well established today, if the zoos improve sufficiently, they are granted recognition for three years. If they do not improve within a specified time frame they are deemed "derecognised" and must be closed by their state. Only recognised zoo can operate legally in the country. As of this year there are 164 recognised zoos in the country and 90 recently derecognised zoos. Since a few years after the inception of CZA, many other zoos have been derecognised. This article is an update and overview of some of the last year's activities of Central Zoo Authority.
