Wild animals are a part and parcel of the ecosystem as a natural renewable resource, maintaining foodchains, keeping ecobalance and providing hygienic conditions for the existence of all organisms including humans. Making the general mass of the country concious of this fact is an essential time demand so that wild animals may be conserved and propagated scientifically and judiciously throughout the country up to the optimum-level as well as getting revenue by them. This book makes an important contribution to the understanding of wildlife and its management.

The text has been written in a simple and lucid language so that the reader can grasp the matter easily and succinctly.
