In many countries today, laws protect wildlife. In India the need for such protection was realized centuries
ago.
About 300 BC, an Indian writer described forests that were somewhat like national parks today. The killing
of game animals was carefully governed. Some animals were fully protected. Within the forest, nobody was
allowed to cut trees, burn woods, or trap animals for their furs. Animals that became dangerous to human
visitors were trapped or killed outside the park so that other animals would not become uneasy.
The need for wildlife protection is greater now than ever before. About a thousand sorts of animals are in
danger of extinction, and the speed at which they are being destroyed has been putting on. With mammals, for
example, the speed of extinction is now about one sort every year; from AD l to 1800, the speed was about one
sort every fifty years. Everywhere, men are trying to solve the problem of saving wildlife while caring for the
world's growing population.
