General Observations A ] Pug Marks —Tiger Vargakar , Chaukor Female Aayatakar Tiger—Pad [ Gadeli ] – 4 Toes {Ungalia } Tigres—Pad 4 5 th is Due Claw Only on front leg Fore limb is stronger than hind & larger than hind. Pug Marks—Only left hind legs pug marks are taken. Tiger Pug Marks------Rounded toes [ Ungalia ] Tigress Egg Shape. [ Anda kruti ] Pug Marks indicates-----Age of Tiger B ] Faecal Sample -[ Mul , Vista] Carnivores- Scat Nilgai---All defecates at one point.1- 2 Feet height [ Jamun like] Makhar kahate. Chausinga—Makhar & Khudani Black buck- [ Krushna sar] Makhar Wild dogs---deficates & urinate at one place. In Q Spotted Deer—Like Sheep & Goats [ Lendi] Bison------------Cattle Samber---Smaller than Nilgai [ Lendi] Stampping ground 1oo feet area.[ Night halt] Bear------- Faecal sample- seeds [Falo ke big, chilate] Tiger----First scat—Semisolid After eating—Having hairs. Bone pieces Black in colour. Turned white after some time. Offensive odour. Eats Grass to clean Intestine.[ Atadi]

35. C ] Territory Markings D ] Kill Tiger Leopard 1 Eats from back. Genital organs 1 Eats all organs & Skin 2 Open Stomach, Take out all organs 2 Thoracic cavity- Digging of Organs. 3 Good Surgeon. Clean Tiger lives near kill 4 Impression of Canine teeth Depth & distance between bite indicates Predator. So you must keep a diary to note down all observations while moving in Forest.

40. Evaluation Report Format Name of person------------ Post---- Date of visit----- Compartment no.--- General Health of Wild Life Very Good--------+ + + [Write 3 plus marks] Good- + + Weak- + Accordingly write down the general health of total wild herbivores in a flock. Write about the abnormalities observed if any. Name of Vegetables In The Compartment Grasses---- Fruit trees Trees Distance of water source Near the compartment Away from compartment Presence of Mineral Depot [ Salt Lick ] There are certain areas in the Forest where Minerals are present. Wild animals use to go to that place & licks soil or stones

41. Distance from Village Grazing alone in groups or with Domestic Herbivores Out break of any disease in near by villages If yes, immediately report to Higher authority & also inform to near by Govt. Veterinary Doctor. Names of Wild Carnivores present in the area

42. Names of Wild Carnivores present in the area Write down on all above points & submit your report to higher authority for necessary action. With the help of your report monitoring of wild life heath will be possible. Compartments where heath of wild life is weak, more attention is to be given. The conditions in the healthy area are in the record & are with you. Compare it on following points. 1] Availability of Grasses, Fruit trees in both areas. In healthy & in weak wild life area. Note down the difference between two areas. Take suitable measures accordingly. Introduce the new verity of trees & grasses in weak sector for better results. 2] Other factors like water holes, Common grazing of wild life & domestic animals & mineral depot must be consider on war footage. 3] make the weak wild life area like that of healthy area. This will definitely help in improving general health of wild life. 4] Collect faecal material from all the area. Get it examined. Collect only random samples & not of each wild life, The above measures will definitely improves the general health of wild life in all ranges. Dr. A.D.Kholkute BVSc & AH. R. No. 2266
