Letters to the Editor
A study of tiger habitats shows that long and broad stretches of closed forests with a permanent source of water, adequate pockets of open grassland supporting a number of herbivores, with hardly any cultivated farmland, can attract a tiger or one with a couple of cubs. Many former kings maintained such exclusive hunting places. In Sehore and Raisen of Madhya Pradesh, there are no longer such reserves, well known in the past. Due to cultivation of all available flat land, original active springs have dried up. Excessive poaching has made wildlife in Bhopal extinct. Places such as the erstwhile shikargas (hunting abodes) can still be revived.
