ECONOMICAL IMPORTANCEOF WILDLIFFE

The wildlife of a country is an important  natural wealth  of that  country .If it  conserved and exploited scientifically  , it will earn  a great revenue , leading  to the economic growth  of the related country .The  exploitation  of the  wildlife  for earning  revenue can be done  in the following ways ;

    [1] By  scientific  exploitation of feathers, skin , meat , horns ,etc., and exporting them to countries  where they are in demand  and to fetch  high price .Thus , a huge foreign  exchange  can  be earned through the wild life  attracts tourists from different countries  and thus  it constitute  a great source of revenue .The  propely  managed  wild life  can be  developed into  a revenue earning  industry .The  properly managed  wildlife can be   developed into a revenue earning industry .The  big game reserves of african countries  attract many tourists .Fishing  and shoting are important sources  of income  locally in many developed countries                           [2] Many species  of widanimals are productive  than domesticated livestock  in their natural eco-systems. The se can be managed  as a resource for human to utilise .                                                                 [3]  The collection of  live wild animals  for  zoological gardens  and dead  wild animals  is  a good  source of earning forign exchange .Besides , ity also serves as an  effective sorce of knowledge  for children and youngsters .                                                                                                                                               Cultural and Aesthetic  importance ; Mythological and children stories , told in many countries ,are  mostly based  on wild animals  ,otherwise  these would  have been  dull and infective .The circular dance of peacock  with  its fully expanded brilliantly coloured wings raised as a a large circular-disc is very fascinating .Songs of the  birds  infuse happiness and cheerfulness  in us . If forest are deprived of  wild animals,these would appear blank  and boring inspite of  their  attractive grrenary .The wild  animals of  a country , particularly  unique ones ,are national heritage of the country .                                                                                                                                         IMPORTANT WILD ANIMALS OF INDIA                               [1] Lion ; Indian lion is very important and  rare animal .It is regarded as  national animal of our country  and therefore ,finds place  in our national emblem                                               
 [2] Tiger; Tiger live in a variety of  habitats from horn forests to dense terai forests. In the Himalayas , they are found  upto 2000 m height above sea level with wide distribution  in uttar pradesh .                                  [3] Panther ;The panther ,named  tendua  in hindi , is  mostly tiger -like  but smaller and spotted .It can  live anywhere  and prey upon   any animal ,even man. Therefore,it is  more dangerous than tiger .                           [4]Hunting leopard or Cheetah; It is found  on high  mountains  of the central  India and  preys upon swamp deers and their cubs .[5] Indian rhino or ghenda . About 5000 yrs ago rhino  [rhinocerous ]  was  found  in large  number  in  plains of the indus river . Somehow , rhino disappeared   gradually from the west   and now are confined  to grasslands  and  jungle  areas of the foot hills  of the himalayas  and some part of  bihar, bengal and assam .          
                               Thus there  is highly economical importances of wild animals  so we have to save them .
