Abstract:

This study presents insights from a comprehensive analysis of bird counts conducted at Narathali waterbody in Buxa Tiger Reserve between 2009 and 2019. Thirteen bird species were monitored, including six wintering duck species and seven resident waterfowl species. The population trends of these birds remained relatively constant throughout the study period. Additionally, the study documented raptor counts and compiled a checklist of waterbirds observed at the waterbody. These findings enhance our understanding of bird population dynamics in this significant habitat and provide valuable information for the conservation and management of the Buxa Tiger Reserve.

Abstract:

AbstractDifficult terrain and inclement weather limit our knowledge of large predators, such as the tiger Panthera tigris, in the Himalayas. A lack of empirical data on large carnivores can lead to mismanagement of protected areas and population declines. We used non-invasive genetic and remote sensing data to inform the management of such high-altitude protected areas. We used the tiger as a focal species to investigate prey preference and habitat suitability in India's Buxa Tiger Reserve, which encompasses several eco-geographical regions in the Himalayan and subtropical zones. During 2010–2013, 909 faecal samples were collected, of which 372 were confirmed, using genetic analysis, to be of tiger origin. Fourteen prey species/groups were identified in 240 tiger faecal samples, largely dominated by goats Capra spp. (26.59%), rhesus macaques Macaca mulatta (22.22%) and cattle Bos spp. (20.63%). Considering only the wild prey species for which survey data are available, however, and frequency of occurrence of prey in faecal samples, hog deer Axis porcinus, sambar deer Rusa unicolor and spotted deer Axis axis were the most preferred prey species. Using faecal sample locations to examine the relationship between tiger presence and environmental features indicated that the niche for tigers is narrower than the available protected area: c. 62% of core protected area is suitable, of which only 17% is highly suitable for tigers. Tigers prefer dense vegetation, open forests, riverine vegetation and areas close to water sources. Faecal sample-based studies have the potential to generate data that can help us understand the ecology of elusive carnivore species inhabiting high-altitude landscapes.

Abstract:

Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR) is located in Alipurduar Sub Division of West Bengal, India. It comprises of the entire forest area of the erstwhile Buxa Forest Division (Created in 1877 – 78) and some territory of the erstwhile neighboring Cooch Behar Forest Division. The Reserve lies between Latitudes 23o30′ N to 23o50′ N and Longitudes 89o25′ E to 89o55′ E. The total area of the reserve is 760.87 km2 of which 385.02 km2 has been constituted as the Buxa Sanctuary and National Park (Core zone of the BTR) and the balance 375.85 km2 areas is treated as a buffer zone. It has 37 forest villages and 4 fixed demand holdings, 46 revenue villages and 34 tea gardens in and around it. The survey work was done in May, 2015 by visiting a forest edge village, 28 Mile, in Buxa Tiger Reserve and the primary data were gathered through field survey and direct contact with common people and authorized centres of the region. Surveys on the demography, agriculture, livestock management, water management, education, culture, health, waste management, disaster management, transport, biodiversity, joint forest management activities, Non-timber forest product usage and human animal conflict were done in this area. In every phase of the survey work, photographic documentation was done. In spite of being positioned in a diverse and sensitive ecological zone, the village is not adequately managed. There is an urgent need for implementing sustainable management systems in the areas for the betterment of the socio-environmental structures. Some of the possible management strategies have been suggested for maintaining the social, environmental, economic and ecological balance of the region.

Abstract:

The present study was carried out to record the avifaunal diversity and abundance in and around Buxa Tiger Reserve (Raja Bhat Khawa, Buxa Fort, Raimatang and Jayanti) and Rasikbeel Wetland Complex, situated at the northern part of West Bengal, India during 19th – 22nd November, 2013. A total of 60 bird species belonging to 31 families were identified during four days of study period of which 8 were winter migrants, one was summer migrant and rest were resident. Anthropogenic interventions have altered much of the natural habitat of the present study location; however, a healthy avifaunal diversity was recorded during the present study. More intensive investigations will certainly enrich our knowledge of avian diversity and distribution pattern from the present study location leading to the proper conservation of this important bird area.

Abstract:

The present study was carried out to investigate tree species diversity, population dynamics, and tree species regeneration patterns at Rajabhatkhawa Range of Buxa Tiger Reserve of West Bengal to better understand the regeneration dynamics and population structure of tree species. A total of 140 quadrats (size 2m × 2 m) were set with the sampling intensity 0.1% for regeneration survey of the area by following random quadrat sampling method. This study documented about ”106" regenerating tree species, representing “74” genera and “40” families from the study area from which about “47” percent of tree species showed “good” regeneration status. Monoon simiarum had highest seedlings density with 8125.00 seedlings ha-1 followed by Aglaia spectabilis (4642.86 seedlings ha-1). Monoon simiarum showed highest IVI index of 15.19, followed by Aglaia spectabilis (10.41). About 9 percent of the species had “fair” regeneration status and 8 percent had “poor” regeneration status, the fair or poor regeneration might be due to insufficient seed dispersal that limits native species colonisation. However, it was observed that a total of 18 percent of tree species were classified as “not regenerating” and again 18 percent of tree species that were present in either sapling or seedling stage but no adult stage were categorized as new regeneration.

Abstract:

The present paper attempts to outline the emerging twin challenges of biodiversity conservation and the promotion of local livelihood opportunities for local people residing in and around the Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR) in the Indian State of West Bengal. The study is based on a comprehensive review of the existing literature, secondary data collected from various government reports, and interaction with local forest dwellers in and around the nature park. The study finds that although the Buxa Tiger Reserve houses some of the critically threatened species, both flora and fauna, it is under severe pressure from both natural and anthropogenic factors. The natural factors that are threatening the nature park include climate change-induced water scarcity, frequent droughts and erratic rainfall. This has also brought about livelihood insecurity among local inhabitants, which has resulted in human-wildlife conflicts, illegal and rampant wildlife poaching, fragmented landscapes due to encroachment, deforestation, forest fire, the conflict between the forest department and local people, and others. Hence, sustainable use and management of park resources require both effective conservation measures and local livelihood strategies. Efforts should be made for adopting participatory biodiversity conservation strategies in which both park authority and local people work collectively towards achieving desired conservation and livelihood outcomes.

Abstract:

The Duars region of the northern part of West Bengal is picturesque with dense forests, hills, tea gardens, plantations and many rivers and streams. The Buxa Tiger Reserve (BTR), one of the many protected areas in the region, is one of the most biodiverse regions of the country. It boasts of many endemic plants and animals. It is the home for the endangered Indian Tiger. Besides this, the BTR is the source of income and livelihood of many local and ethnic populations residing in an around the reserve. The cultural and historical heritage of the BTR is also noteworthy. Therefore, the reserve is congenial for tourism and many ecodevelopment activities have been planned and executed in the area. However, natural disasters, increasing human population, indiscriminate use of natural resources human wildlife conflict and growing pressure from anthropogenic activities has led to a loss of biodiversity, The reserve faces many management issues and challenges. The current study aims to do a thorough sectional analysis of the problems of biodiversity conservation and management in the BTR and suggest mitigation measures for the same.
