  • Country's First Inter-State Translocation of Tigers Project
    Country’s first inter-state translocation of tigers project December 10, 2020 In news Madhya Pradesh CM wrote to Odisha CM, asking him to ensure that Sundari – a tigress shifted as part of India’s first inter-state translocation project in 2018 –is kept in proper care and appropriate environment until the Ghorela centre in Kanha Tiger Reserve is ready to accommodate her. Why did the translocation project come up? In the last 16 years, Odisha’s tiger population has reduced by 104 from 132 in 2002 to 28 in 2018. In the backdrop of this, NTCA in September-November 2017 had approved a project to augment and recover tiger population in Satkosia tiger reserve (963 sqkm) in Odisha. Consequent to this, permission was granted to capture two tigers from tiger reserves in Madhya Pradesh. NTCA also took technical help of Wildlife Institute of India (WII), Dehradun. Inter-state translocation project in 2018 and the controversy over it Mahavir and Sundari were the first pair of tiger and tigress sent to Satkosia from MP’s Panna Tiger Reserve and Bandhavghar respectively as part of the translocation project. The two states have been at loggerheads over the relocation of Sundari after she killed two villagers living in the peripheral of Satkosia Tiger Reserve in Odisha a few months after being brought in from Madhya Pradesh. Both states then wrote to the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), with Odisha urging that Sundari be sent back while Madhya Pradesh remained reluctant. This project was suspended by NTCA, a statutory body under MoEFCC monitoring tiger reserves, after it found that “pre-requisite conditions for reintroduction of tigers were not followed”.

  • An Ethnozoological Study in the Areas of Satkosia Wildlife Sanctuary, Angul, Odisha,India Dr
    IJREAS VOLUME 6, ISSUE 2 (February, 2016) (ISSN 2249-3905) International Journal of Research in Engineering and Applied Sciences (IMPACT FACTOR – 5.981) An ethnozoological study in the areas of Satkosia wildlife sanctuary, Angul, Odisha,India Dr. Bishnu Charan Pradhan Dept. of Zoology Angul Mahila mahavidyalaya, Angul,Odisha, India 759122 Abstract There is evidence that human beings are familiar with use of animals for food, cloth, medicine, etc. since ancient times. Enormous work has been done on ethnobotany and traditional medicine. Like plants, animal and their products are also possessing medicinal properties that can be exploited for the benefit of human beings. In India, many ethnic communities are dispersed all over the country and these people are still totally depended on local traditional medicinal system for their health care. India is gifted with faunal and floral biodiversity, Satakosia wildlife sanctuary is also one of them, and thus the aim of this work was to take an ethnozoological field survey among Kandha, Kolha, Santal and Sabar people (main tribal groups of this area) in the adjoining areas of this sanctuary. Introduction :- The total population of Orissa as at 0:00 hours of 1st March 2001 stood at 36,706,920 as per the provisional results of the Census of India 2001. In terms of population it holds the same position (eleventh) among States and Union territories as at the previous census. The population of the State rose by 15.94% between 1991-2001.
