Wildl Tales from the Wild - Saad Bin Jung


The scion of the Royal families of Pataudi and Bhopal and the Paigah Wali ud Dowla of Hyderabad shares his experience in his walk of life that he decides to spend among the wilderness. Separated from his favourite sport of cricket due to illness, he takes refuge for life in his second passion, Wildlife. The author goes to narrate the thrilling incidences and encounters in the wilderness of Bandipur as he starts to makes his living through Bush Betta resorts. His early learnings in the wild, his encounters with the elephant and other residents, humorous incidents in his wild resort, encounters with poachers and several such things have been told which give the reader a thrilling and enjoying read.

The member of the Karnataka wildlife advisory board also supports and argues that Eco tourism is the best and effective tool to curtail the issues of poaching and smuggling which, by its means uses the same knowledge and expertise of the tribals to spread awareness on conservation and, at the same time gives the tribals a source of legitimate livelihood.
