Introduction
Developing India is metamorphosing the environments; especially it is giving an antagonistic emanation for Indian Wildlife. Developing cities, villages, leads to massacres of trees. This demonstration of trees is leading to the end of wildlife in India.

We are slaughtering the impeccable seraphic ventures just for our sake. Species have been relinquishing, since this development began. We have reached to a height when much percent of the species have been dematerialized. Wildlife includes plants, trees, birds and many others organisms. Wildlife is the major reason of human’s endurance. Wildlife of India has variety of organisms of different origins. The region’s divergent wildlife is preserved in plentiful national parks and wildlife sanctuaries across the country
In recent time, this kind of human violation has become a threat for wildlife. Now it turns into a need for prevention of Wildlife jewel in India. In 1972, India started the consummate Wildlife protection Act and Project tiger to bulwark crucial habitat. Along with over 500 wildlife sanctuaries, India now hosts 14 biosphere reserves. In our land, for development wildlife is daily moving a step ahead to be vanished.

As teasing is not a single reason behind such vanished situation, there are many reason of ending wildlife, Haunting is does the same. Haunting is a kind of dilemma faced by many protected areas worldwide. Haunting is done for self-consumption or for merchandize fleshes, horns, antlers, pelt, bones, feathers, etc worldwide for cash income. Again they are involved in the massacre of innocent organisms. As teasing is not a single reason behind such vanished situation, there are many reason of ending wildlife, Haunting is does the same.

Ending small species leads to end of our National animal, Tiger. A tiger annually needs about 50-60 deer-seized for its survival. But the slump in the ratio of wild animals leads to no food for tiger, means less tiger

    Unfortunately, many countries who have banned tiger poaching are not implementing the law. According to TRAFFIC, a global wildlife trade monitoring network and a joint program of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a lack of law enforcement threatens several species of tiger (Nowell, 2007). TRAFFIC stresses that “law enforcement is necessary to prevent illegal trade” (Nowell, 2007). Even so, every species of tiger, except the Siberian tigers, have a declining population.…

    The destruction of natural habitat is one of the main threats faced by most of the animals’ species in the world. This is done as large projects, such as dams and waterways that are man-built. Another reason is the clearing of forests and forest fires. Humans excessively deforest areas where animals live because they need timber for financial gain. Forest fires cause animals to move to strange areas, where they are exposed to many dangers. Subsequently, the clearing of areas to build new houses, roads, buildings, businesses or plantations causes the animal population to decrease. For example, in India, large areas of natural habitats are destroyed for tea plantations. The…

    Extinction of Species • Every 20 minutes, the world adds another 3,500 human lives but loses one or more entire species of animal or plant life - at least 27,000 species per year. (Source: PBS) • At the present rates of extinction, as many as 20% of the world's 7-15 million species could be gone in the next 30 years. This rate of extinction has been unprecedented since the disappearance of dinosaurs 65 million years ago (Source: WWF). Habitat Destruction (Source: Animal Alliance, unless stated otherwise) • Human population reached 1 billion by 1800. Over 6 billion by 2000. Conservative estimates predict that our population will reach 9 billion people by 2050 (Source: Population Reference Bureau). • The hourly destruction of an estimated 240 acres of natural habitat is directly attributable to the growth in human populations. • 80% of the decline in biological diversity is caused by habitat destruction. Plight of Rhinos (Source: International Rhino Foundation) • Of the dozens of species of rhino that once roamed the earth, only 5 now exist. • Where there were once over 100,000 black rhinos on the plains of Africa, there are now only 2,707 on the entire continent. • The staggering decimation of the rhino population is due to poaching, to satisfy the demand for the horn for use in Eastern traditional medicines and as dagger handles. • Prices up to US$40,000 a kilo have been recorded for the much prized rhino horn - more than 5 times the price of gold. The African Elephant (Source: CITES) • 5 -10 million African elephants existed in 1930. Less than 1% of that number (approximately 600,000) remained when they were added to the international list of the most endangered species in 1989. • Demand for ivory combined with loss of habitat from human settlement led to these huge declines in population. African Wild Dog (Source: American Museum of Natural History) • Listed as one of the worlds most endangered canids, and the most endangered…

    Bengal Tigers

    The Royal Bengal Tiger, once known as the reigning feline of Asia, are now on the brink of extinction. This beautiful species is quickly disappearing due to human activity. Land development has pushed back forestry, which is making it almost impossible for tigers to survive in their range of natural habitat. Additionally, even though it’s illegal to own, hunt or trap tigers, poachers continue to trap and sell tiger parts on the black market. Furthermore, tigers are being separated by “population fragmentation” which prevents them from mating and producing healthy cubs. Although conservation centers are providing safe havens for tigers, they are not seeing the results they expected. Royal Bengal Tigers are a majestic and alluring animal that will no longer exist if humans continue to poach them and take away their natural habitat.…

    Habitat loss and fragmentation is another important reason why tigers disappearing. Without a safe and healthy home for tigers and their prey, neither can survive in the wild. Humans are rapidly encroaching into wilderness areas that were once ruled exclusively by the tiger. In India, which is home to over one third of the world's wild tigers, the human population has exceeded one billion inhabitants. As tigers compete with humans for land, they find less and less to eat. Local people hunt the same prey as tigers do, pressing tigers to resort to domestic animals and, on rarer occasions, even humans. This makes them unpopular with villagers. Threatened villagers often poison, shoot, or snare the encroaching tigers. In addition to food, local communities also need to use the surrounding patches of forest area for livestock grazing and wood for fuel. Without wilderness, the wild tiger will not survive.…

    As we celebrate 2010 as the International Year of Biodiversity, a sad realization dawns that even amongst the educated the term biodiversity suffers from a lack of absolute clarity. Biodiversity is the degree of variation of life forms within a given ecosystem or an entire planet. It is a measure of the health of biological systems Industrialization has caused a major dent in biodiversity due to loss of plant and animal habitat.India, with it’s tropical monsoon type of climate has a rich biodiversity but as everywhere else in the world it faces degradation. With our Vedic heritage of venerating forces of nature as Jal,Vayu, the common man values affinity with environment but with rapid urbanization and industrialization there is untold damage done to the environment- the flora and fauna. Celebrating World Sparrow Day is a leading indicator of the massive damage.Such efforts come from governments across the world and have acquired crucial importance in good governance. Here the role of mass media news papers, television, radio is important as by highlighting major policy decisions on environment, they spread awareness and provide feedback. Recent decisions by ministry of environment and forests to close the Loharinag Pala project on the river Ganga or the refusal to permit bauxite mining in Niyamgiri Hills in Orissa are cases in point highlighted by the media. Mass media is clearly scripting a new role for itself as the Fourth…

    During the First millennium, the entire Indian subcontinent had dense forests with scattered islands of cultivation. The chronicles of Greek and Chinese writers recorded the luxurious forests which were inaccessible to man in the land between Himalayas and Vindyas. The economic and cultural life of the nation centered on rivers and forests and they were held to be sacred. Animal life flourished in the dense forests without the fear from man. The impenetrable forests provided the desired habitat for the healthy growth and sustenance to wildlife. The situation, however, changed dramatically in the last century of the Second millennium. Growth of civilization, industrialization world over, population pressure associated with the demand for food and requirement of more agricultural land had its impact on the forests of the subcontinent. The land between the Himalayas to Kanyakumari with isolated and sporadic human settlements of the 1st millennium has today sprawling human settlements, ever expanding cities and towns, increasing network of transportation channels. Thus the modernization has resulted in the same land of the 1st millennium look more like full of manmade structures. The forests are now scattered and isolated and mostly restricted to the protected areas enforced by legal provisions.…
