Conservation in India through on-the-ground case studies
Wildlife Conservation: Challenges and Opportunities surveys conservation in India through short accounts of conflicts, interventions, and recovery efforts. Its two-part structure first supplies background on wildlife protection and tiger reserves, including poaching, tourism regulation, and community participation. Later chapters turn to specific cases involving mining restrictions, the restoration of Manas Tiger Reserve following Bodo insurgency, former poachers taking protective roles, village relocation around Bhadra, and marine-species conservation. Legal directives, local livelihoods, protected-area management, and habitat pressures recur throughout. An epilogue gathers the author’s recommendations, framing the book as both an account of conservation initiatives and a discussion of the obstacles they confront.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Readers interested in wildlife conservation in India
- Those seeking case studies on protected areas, community participation, and environmental regulation
- Readers interested in tiger, olive ridley turtle, and whale shark conservation

Currently, wildlife conservation in India faces significant challenges. Through this book, the author aims to provide readers with an understanding of these challenges and firsthand accounts of the efforts being made to address them, presented through short stories.
The first part of the book begins with an introduction and background information on wildlife conservation in India. It includes stories about the revival of the tiger population, which had been depleted by poaching, the Hon. Supreme Court's directives against unplanned tourism in Tiger Reserve areas, and the India Eco-development project, which emphasises the active participation of local communities in managing Tiger Reserves.
The second part of the book features stories about various conservation efforts, such as the cessation of unregulated mining in Saranda under the Supreme Court's orders, the revival of wildlife in Manas Tiger Reserve after devastation by Bodo insurgents, and the transformation of poachers in Paraiyar into protectors. It also highlights the exceptional eco-development work in the reserve, the successful relocation of Bhadra Villages, which benefits farmers and wildlife, and the closure of K.I.O.C.L iron ore mining under Supreme Court directives. Additionally, there are chapters on the conservation of olive ridley turtles and whale sharks. The book concludes with an epilogue offering pertinent recommendations.
