Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Jungle Adventures; From the Forests of India', as the name suggests, is an interesting book of short stories based on true jungle adventures in Indian forests. The Sunderbans National Park in India is home to the majestic Royal Bengal tiger and the high altitude Himalayan conifer forests like Binsar Wildlife Sanctuary are the favourite hunting grounds of the ferocious snow leopards. Before independence, tiger hunting was a popular sport among the British colonizers as well as the royal Indian maharajahs.

The stories will interest readers of all ages.

Download or read book Jungle Fishing Misadventures 1974 2019 written by Stephen Orndorf and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-02-21 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For close to 40 years, Steve Orndorf and his brother, Dave, have traveled to the jungles of South America in the pursuit of adventure and trophy fish. While the fishing hasn’t always been productive, there’s been no shortage of adventures. Journeying through seven countries, they’ve encountered logistical nightmares, hostile Indians, and a host of intimidating creatures—piranhas, electric eels, poison dart frogs, vampire bats, caimans, freshwater rays, snakes, bullet ants, and more. The richly biodiverse Amazon and Orinoco River basins have served as backdrops for most of these trips. Here, a brief walk in the jungle can expose one to an astonishing array of different species, more perhaps than would be revealed in a month of walking in most parts of North America. For the Orndorf brothers, sportsfishing has opened the door to exploring this magnificent region, truly one of our planet’s last remaining frontiers.

Download or read book Tropical Forests International Jungle written by M. Smouts and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-05-29 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marie-Claude Smouts looks at the issue of rain forest depletion and global environmental policies. Beginning with how the issue entered the world stage in the 1980s despite alarms over the issue in the 1950s, Tropical Forests, International Jungle explores the complexities of what are tropical forests, what role they play not only in environmentalism but in trade, health care, and almost every facet of natural and social life for those living there and beyond. Although for most in the developed world tropical forests have gained a status of part of our world heritage, these forests are not really part of the global commons or a global public good. Developing nations maintain control over the forests within their borders and often use the forests as they see fit. The international system for mediating the issue is a fractured group of non-governmental organizations and transnational networks, often with competing views of how to manage tropical forests. Despite this seemingly grim picture, Smouts is optimistic. A changing world view toward forest depletion is influencing countries both North and South. Although forests will be used commercially, it is a dynamic process that should maintain them far into the future.

Download or read book Jungle Submarines written by Mario B Vincent and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-01-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “And then came the elephants! He half-heard, half-saw something moving. Gigantic forms lumbering by on velveteen toes, ears aquiver, trunks aloft, sensitive nostrils twitching and turning like the periscopes on a shoal of jungle submarines.” Sometimes comical, sometimes poignant, always gripping, Jungle Submarines follows the real-life adventures of Botch as he grows up with his eccentric family – Papa the stoic, Mama the passionate, Minu the thug, Anu the stubborn, and Nini the sweet – in a country and a world that is charmingly disorganized. Papa’s job takes him and the family from the swampy jungles of Bihar to the dusty deserts of Iraq, from the cool wetness of Coonoor to the hot dryness of Hyderabad; and this pageant of life teaches Botch about happiness and sadness, glory and defeat, strength and weakness, but above all about trust and family.

Download or read book The Dragon in the Jungle written by Xiaobing Li and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western historians have long speculated about Chinese military intervention in the Vietnam War. It was not until recently, however, that newly available international archival materials, as well as documents from China, have indicated the true extent and level of Chinese participation in the conflict of Vietnam. For the first time in the English language, this book offers an overview of the operations and combat experience of more than 430,000 Chinese troops in Indochina from 1968-73. The Chinese Communist story from the "other side of the hill" explores one of the missing pieces to the historiography of the Vietnam War. The book covers the chronological development and Chinese decision-making by examining Beijing's intentions, security concerns, and major reasons for entering Vietnam to fight against the U.S. armed forces. It explains why China launched a nationwide movement, in Mao Zedong's words, to "assist Vietnam and resist America" in 1965-72. It details PLA foreign war preparation, training, battle planning and execution, tactical decisions, combat problem solving, political indoctrination, and performance evaluations through the Vietnam War. International Communist forces, technology, and logistics proved to be the decisive edge that enabled North Vietnam to survive the U.S. Rolling Thunder bombing campaign and helped the Viet Cong defeat South Vietnam. Chinese and Russian support prolonged the war, making it impossible for the United States to win. With Russian technology and massive Chinese intervention, the NVA and NLF could function on both conventional and unconventional levels, which the American military was not fully prepared to face. Nevertheless, the Vietnam War seriously tested the limits of the communist alliance. Rather than improving Sino-Soviet relations, aid to North Vietnam created a new competition as each communist power attempted to control Southeast Asian communist movement. China shifted its defense and national security concerns from the U.S. to the Soviet Union.
