  • Nanda Devi & Valley of Flowers National
    NANDA DEVI & VALLEY OF FLOWERS NATIONAL PARKS INDIA Nanda Devi National Park is one of the most spectacular wilderness areas in the Himalayas. It is dominated by the 7,800m peak of Nanda Devi, India‟s second highest mountain which is approached through the Rishi Ganga gorge, one of the deepest in the world. No humans live in the Park which has remained more or less intact because of its rugged inaccessibility. It has a very diverse flora and is the habitat of several endangered mammal: the snow leopard, serow, Himalayan musk deer and bharal. The Valley of Flowers National Park nearby protects one of the most beautiful mountain wildernesses of the western Himalayas, celebrated for its meadows of endemic alpine flowers where more than 600 Himalayan species grow in an area of less than 2,500 hectares. It is also the habitat of the snow leopard, Asiatic black bear, brown bear, Himalayan musk deer and bharal. Together, the parks preserve a transition zone between the eastern and western Himalayan flora, the Zanskar mountains and the Great Himalayas, long praised in Hindu mythology and for over a century by botanists and mountaineers. COUNTRY India NAME Nanda Devi & Valley of Flowers National Park NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1988: Nanda Devi National Park inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria vii and x. 2005: Extended to include the Valley of Flowers National Park under the same criteria.

  • Action Plan for the Reintroduction of Mouse Deer
    Action Plan for the Reintroduction of Indian Mouse Deer 2018 PREAMBLE Reintroductions of native fauna are a rare practice globally and rarer still in India where it has only been attempted twice in recent times, for the red panda and the pygmy hog. After the resounding success of the mouse deer conservation-breeding program at Nehru Zoological Park, Hyderabad, the idea of reintroducing mouse deer in to the wild was mooted. Several rounds of meetings later, it was decided to go ahead with the plan. After due deliberation, when an area inside Amrabad Tiger Reserve, Telangana, was designated as the site for release and preparations were being made to draw the specifics, since there was no precedent available to follow, the need for a scientific protocol document that would serve as a guide was strongly felt. Therefore, this document serves as the first ever action plan for mouse deer reintroduction by soft-release. It provides an outline of the goals, objectives and the methodology that needs to be adopted to make the plan scientifically rigorous and accountable. This plan has been prepared in accordance with IUCN’s Guidelines for Reintroductions and Other Conservation Translocations (version 1.0). It encourages all stakeholders of Indian wildlife conservation to use this document to plan reintroductions. It urges other forest departments to come forward and consider repopulating their depleted forests with the enigmatic Indian spotted chevrotain. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This document is the result of a cooperative effort by several people with a common desire to rewild degraded forests. They have directly or indirectly contributed to its compilation and brought the program to realization.

  • Mammal Tour of the Western Ghats of South India in October 2015
    Mammal tour of the Western Ghats of South India in October 2015 Uditha Hettige, Lester Perera, Deepal Warakagoda, Chinthaka De Silva of Bird and Wildlife Team (To see the detailed trip report please go to http://www.birdandwildlifeteam.com/mammal-tour-of-the-western- ghats-of-south-india-october-2015/) Interestingly though members of Bird and Wildlife Team have been leading tours to south India since 2002, in October 2015 after much procrastination over the years we as a team was looking in to developing our portfolio with an additional products. Since our special mammal tours in Sri Lanka became very popular amongst the world mammal enthusiasts during last several years we looked at the possibilities of developing similar tours in South India. Our success in leading mammal tours in Sri Lanka, has been mainly due to the in depth knowledge, ability to find mammals (both nocturnal and diurnal), and effort in addition to the dedication of our tour leaders in the field. This has enables us to encounter a very high percentage of mammals of the country on every tour. For several years now our clients have been insisting us to look in to the mammal aspect of the Western Ghats, thus began the preparations for a recce tour there. The logistics, time constrains feasibility and new appropriate properties for lodging was top priority as these aspects could be considered important from a birding aspect as well since some birds are elusive so, we also had to find new sites too. Western Ghats of South India (The range runs north to south along the western edge of the Deccan Plateau, and separates the plateau from a narrow coastal plain, called Konkan, along the Arabian Sea.

  • New Distribution Record of Dhole from Northern Western Ghats, India

Abstract The dhole Cuon alpinus, a globally threatened social carnivore, has a declining population trend across its range. Even with a purported wide distribution range from Central Asia, India to South-East Asia, most dhole populations are small and survive in fragmented habitats. Here, we report a new record of the species north of its confirmed known occurrence in the Western Ghats, from Phansad Wildlife Sanctuary in the state of Maharashtra, India. The record adds valuable knowledge to the expanding range of the dhole, which could be crucial for its conservation and respective habitat in the future. The presence of dhole in a protected area like Phansad Wildlife Sanctuary, which has ample resources such as prey base, water and suitable habitats could prove a plus point in the conservation of meta-populations of dholes, and puts further emphasis on conserving possible existing corridors around the sanctuary for dhole movement. Article sanctuary is a highly diverse region in the Western Ghats (Gokhale and Ve- lankar 1996), however it is isolated from the main ridge of the Western Ghats mountain range.

Nandankanan Biological Park, Forest and Environment Department, Government of Odisha. pp 1-80. Price: ` 199.00 i PREFACE Recognition of Zoo Rules, 2009 emphasizes the need of 'Nursery for Hand Rearing of Animal Babies' in recognized zoos. Zoos in India also function as Rescue Centres for rehabilitation of many orphaned wild infants. Many Indian zoos have hand reared wild animals in different situations with varied success rate. However documentation of such experiences is far from desired level. The authors have attempted to compile information on more than 50 case reports of hand rearing on 25 species of mammals in Indian condition. Information on general hand rearing processes including initial care, dietary requirements, general husbandry, sanitation and common health problems encountered are also discussed in addition to the case reports. This publication is a result of an extensive literature survey, gathering of data recorded during hand rearing of different mammals at Nandankanan Zoological Park and collection of information on hand rearing of mammals carried out at some other Indian zoos.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality s heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand rrarkings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
