The speciality of Jim corbett's writting is he will take you with him in the haunt,,, each & every single details are there,,, its like you are there,,,, he was more of a great writer than being the legendary haunter...its a rare quality... People loved him,,,, many people thinks he left india because of india's Liberation,, thats is not the truth., The truth is,,, during ww2,, when England asked india's recruitment In exchange of freedom,,, jim corbett actively participated in the recruitment of indians,,,, he had his reason (being half british was a stima ),,, he wanted to do SOMETHING for england,,, and he knew no one he ask will refuse him,, and thats what exactly happened,, he himself managed to recruite a huge deal of soldiers willing to fight,, not for england,, but for they loved him,, not realizing what could be the consequences,,,,,, his emotion clauded his decision and judgement,,, a lot died,, a lot got paralysed for life,,, a lot lost their body parts,, a lot suffered trauma,, and he blammed himself,, some say he even tried to commit suicide (but it has no basis),,,,. , but he left india,,,, But people loved him so much,,,, they still celebrates the rudraprayag loeperd killing day ,,, they themself named a heritage after him,, a british name,,, for the pure respect and love they had still have for him,,,, He never married,, , he had siblings,, he had a dog called robin,, that betrayed him by running away after sensing a loeperd leaving mr. Corbett alone,,,

Sept. 2022 Just yesterday I watched a t.v.show. a series. The one where the hunter/gatherer guy and the ex-soldier go to different spots to attempt to survive in the wilds. The episode I watched took place in Nepal. The mountains were exactly as described in this story and Mr. Corbett's story. The modern day farming methods I see in eastern Colorado, vs. The forming methods in the indian/nepalese mountains is simply amazing. The long, narrow terraces would've taken a lot of labor to make, and not really produced a lot. Not compared to modern day. We here in america are very fortunate.
@selvalore2 жыл бұрын

They get pushed into territory where there is no game due to age, or other tigers being superior in stature. This results in them possibly getting injured by inferior weapons which adds to the lack of game forcing deprivation based behaviours. These were 'extra' tigers, that, were it not for human habitation, may have squeaked out a natural living, but were, for all intents and purposes, not intended evolutionarily to continue the species.

@@selvalore Unfortunately, it may come down to managing the population the same way feral cats are managed...spaying and neutering the population based on available territory and resources. Quite often, if done young enough to the 'beta', a lifelong bond without competition keeps them together, artificially expanding the family unit without expanding the range into territory where there will be conflicts with humans.
