Download or read book In Pursuit of a Man Eater written by Suneet Bhardwaj and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-09-18 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a mysterious leopard that terrorized Thunag, a small town in Mandi District of Himachal Pradesh. It is about the extraordinary experience of sitting on a tree-top Machan, walking the forests in the middle of the night, and the adventures of chasing a man-eater. It is about the fear of living in the realm of a man-eater. This book gives an insight into the behaviour of a leopard derived from various sources of traditional knowledge. The description of the basic instincts, the strengths and the weaknesses of the big cat, and their linkage with the short tales of experience will keep you engrossed. Whether it is the changing perceptions of the human-leopard conflict, the modifications in the social behaviour that a man-eater brings along, or the challenges involved in dealing with a man-eater, the book describes it all. At the same time, it highlights the gaps in the system, grey areas which need research, and the need for people to remain connected with nature. This personal memoir is an exciting and useful read for people of all ages and professions, especially the environmentalists, foresters, bureaucrats, and wildlife enthusiasts.

Download or read book Man eaters of Kumaon written by Jim Corbett and published by General Press. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Man-Eaters of Kumaon' is the best known of Corbett's books, one which offers ten fascinating and spine-tingling tales of pursuing and shooting tigers in the Indian Himalayas during the early years of this 19th Century. The stories also offer first-hand information about the exotic flora, fauna, and village life in this obscure and treacherous region of India, making it as interesting a travelogue as it is a compelling look at a bygone era of hunting. No one understood the ways of the Indian jungle better than Corbett. A skilled tracker, he preferred to hunt alone and on foot, sometimes accompanied by his small dog Robin. Corbett derived intense happiness from observing wildlife and he was a fervent conservationist as well as a tracker. He empathised with the impoverished people amongst whom he lived, in what is today Uttarakhand, and he established India's first tiger sanctuary there. Corbett's writing is as immediate and accessible today as it was when first published in 1944.
Download or read book Meat Eater written by Steven Rinella and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author and host of Netflix’s MeatEater comes “a unique and valuable alternate view of where our food comes from” (Anthony Bourdain). “Revelatory . . . With every chapter, you get a history lesson, a hunting lesson, a nature lesson, and a cooking lesson. . . . Meat Eater offers an overabundance to savor.”—The New York Times Book Review Meat Eater chronicles Steven Rinella’s lifelong relationship with nature and hunting through the lens of ten hunts, beginning when he was an aspiring mountain man at age ten and ending as a thirty-seven-year-old Brooklyn father who hunts in the remotest corners of North America. He tells of having a struggling career as a fur trapper just as fur prices were falling; of a dalliance with catch-and-release steelhead fishing; of canoeing in the Missouri Breaks in search of mule deer just as the Missouri River was freezing up one November; and of hunting the elusive Dall sheep in the glaciated mountains of Alaska. A thrilling storyteller, Rinella grapples with themes such as the role of the hunter in shaping America, the vanishing frontier, the ethics of killing, and the disappearance of the hunter himself as consumers lose their connection with the way their food finds its way to their tables. The result is a loving portrait of a way of life that is part of who we are—as humans and as Americans.
