Textbook of Wildlife Management

Wildlife Management in Indian Universities is being taught as a core-subject of forestry science and even independently. Teaching and attention on the subject matter are progressing day-by-day. It is very essential to understand the roles played by the wild animals, which have come at alarming stage, because they are part and parcel of the ecosystem as a natural renewable resource maintaining foodchains, keeping eco-balance and providing hygienic conditions for the existence of all organisms including human beings. Hence, to aware the general mass of the country is an essential time demand so that wild animals may be conserved and propagated scientifically and judiciously throughout the country upto the optimum level as well as getting revenue by them. For the purpose, teaching and research of the subject should be given top priority. It has been tried to cover almost all parts of course-curricula for the both undergraduate and post-graduate students of the Indian Universities in the field of wildlife Management arranged chapterwise systematically. The book has been written in simple language as far as possible to grasp the matter nicely and easily. It will be my great pleasure, if the book becomes helpful in benefiting the students in raising their depth in the subject concerned.
