On January 17, a group of young men out on a winter trek in the Dachigam National Park near Srinagar were stunned to see the carcass of a Hangul with bullet wounds in the Pehlipora area of the forest.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were shocked when we saw the dead Hangul. There were clear signs of a bullet injury on its body,\u201d said one of the trekkers, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. \u201cThere was no footprint of a wild animal such as a leopard on the snow around that spot. It appeared that the Hangul fled from where it was shot and succumbed after covering some distance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Suspected<\/div>

It was a stag. Its antlers had been sawed off and taken away. Deer antlers are used in some preparations of Chinese traditional medicine and are therefore sought after by poachers and traffickers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Altaf Hussain, Wildlife Warden of Central Kashmir, confirmed that the Hangul had died, but added, \u201cIt is too early to conclude that the Hangul has been hunted down. It is unfair to jump to a conclusion when we are still ascertaining the causes of the Hangul\u2019s death.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jammu and Kashmir Wildlife Department has filed a formal complaint with the police and has sent a sample from the carcass to a forensic laboratory in Chandigarh. \u201cOnce we get the result, we will be in a position to give more details on this,\u201d Hussain told The Third Pole<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state animal of Jammu and Kashmir, the iconic Hangul (Cervus hanglu hanglu<\/em>), also known as Kashmir red deer and Kashmir stag, is under Schedule I of the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 <\/a>and the J&K Wildlife Protection Act, 1978<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is supposed to provide maximum legal protection to the deer that is part of the elk family. The International Union for Conservation of Nature\u2019s <\/a>(IUCN) Red Data Book \u2013 which lists species at risk of extinction \u2013 has declared the Hangul as one of three species in Jammu and Kashmir that are critically endangered. The other two are the Markhor \u2013 the world\u2019s largest species of wild goat found in Kashmir and several regions of Central Asia \u2013 and the Tibetan antelope or \u2018Chiru\u2019, found mostly in the mountainous regions of Mongolia and the Himalayas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts say that until the early 1900s, Hangul were widely distributed in the mountains of Kashmir and parts of Chamba district in adjacent Himachal Pradesh, north and east of Jhelum and Chenab rivers. The population was estimated at around 5,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, according to the latest survey in 2019, there are only 237 Hangul left, all in and around the Dachigam National Park near Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many signs of wildlife trafficking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A fortnight after the finding of the Hangul carcass, on January 31 the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau<\/a> (WCCB) of India\u2019s federal Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC) stated<\/a> that it had seized a cache of wildlife contraband in Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cActing on the basis of intelligence\u2026 a joint and well-coordinated operation was conducted by WCCB, Wildlife Division of J&K Forest Department & J&K Police which resulted in huge seizure of wildlife contrabands (sic) and arrest of two kingpins in Manwal and Anantnag, J&K on 30th January, 2021,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/div>

According to WCCB, 13 leopard skins, seven leopard nails, eight canines, two molars, two leopard skulls, leopard bones (four jaw bones and 140 bone pieces), 38 bear bile sacs, four musk deer pods and one set of musk deer teeth were seized in this operation from Manwal in Udhampur district and from Anantnag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In cases of international smuggling \u2013 be it of wildlife, humans, drugs or arms \u2013 Interpol has a rule of thumb: for every consignment caught, ten get away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reacting to the WCCB announcement, Mridula Paul, senior policy analyst at the Bangalore-based Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE) said there was very little information about the whole scandal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAre locals involved, or is this a job by outsiders? In case locals are involved, then what is the context in which this is occurring? Fighting just the final outcome without understanding the circumstances may not be helpful in preventing these crimes in the long term,\u201d Paul told The Third Pole<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it is important to investigate cases of poaching, it is also important to ask government and NGOs about all forms of crimes against wildlife, Paul added. \u201cFor instance, these crimes committed by individuals are nowhere on the scale of sanctioning a railway track through the Western Ghats, that was done by MoEFCC. It is perhaps easier to go after the small guy rather than create systemic change or question big corporations that mine and cause environmental destruction.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unsafe landing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Along with the poaching of Hangul, leopards, bears, musk deer and other mammals, poaching of birds is also worrying wildlife lovers and experts in Kashmir. In November last year, two of the four white Bewick\u2019s Swans<\/a> that had migrated to Kashmir for the first time were poached in northern Kashmir within days of their arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe had reports about arrival of four Bewick\u2019s Swans in Kashmir \u2013 this excited us all,\u201d said an official of the Wildlife Department. \u201cBut, unfortunately, two of them were hunted down within a week. While we are sure about the poaching, we might never know about the poachers.\u201d Bewick\u2019s Swans (Cygnus columbianus<\/em>) migrate southwards from Siberia in winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Two<\/div>

At the start of 2017, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology<\/em> (SKUAST<\/a>) started a research project<\/a> to study the migration pattern of birds that visit the wetlands of Kashmir every winter. According to principal investigator of the project, Khursheed Ahmad, it is a pioneering study aimed mainly at assessment of movement patterns of 12 migratory waterfowl species \u2013 especially ducks, geese and swans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahmad and his team began the study by ringing 200 birds and followed it up in February 2018 with tagging five birds with satellite transmitters (also called Platform Transmitter Terminal, PTT). The birds, which were ringed and tagged included mallard, shoveler, grey legged geese and gadwall.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, within months, Ahmad and his team stopped receiving signals from the birds fitted with PTT. He suspects the birds were poached. \u201cThey survived for a few weeks only,\u201d Ahmad said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
