Blackbuck
The document discusses the endangered blackbuck antelope species in India. It provides background on the blackbuck, noting that their populations have declined significantly due to loss of habitat and human activities. It describes conservation measures taken by the Indian government to protect blackbuck populations, including establishing sanctuaries and enacting wildlife protection laws. It also suggests ways students can support conservation efforts, such as educating others, volunteering, and reducing their environmental footprint.
The Black Buck
This document provides information about the black buck:
- Males mature from light yellowish fawn color to dark brown, and can be differentiated from females by the presence of long spiraling horns. Females are yellowish fawn with no horns.
- Black bucks live in herds separated by sex, with females and young living in herds of 10-30 and males claiming territories of 1.5-15 hectares.
- They are well adapted for running at speeds up to 80 kph and use acoustic communication like grunts and hisses, hierarchical social structures, and territorial markings to interact.
Captive breeding with case studies
Captive breeding involves breeding endangered animals in controlled, managed environments like zoos, wildlife reserves, and conservation facilities. It aims to conserve biodiversity by saving species from extinction and potentially reintroducing them to natural habitats. While captive breeding has successfully saved some species, it faces challenges like maintaining genetic diversity, adapting animal behavior for survival in the wild, and loss of natural habitat. New technologies studying gene expression and stem cells may help overcome some issues and further the goals of captive breeding programs.
Endangered Species - Mammals
The document discusses endangered mammal species in India. It lists several threatened species, including the Himalayan wolf, brown bear, Bengal tiger, Kashmir stag, Indian leopard, red fox, and Himalayan musk deer. For each species, it provides some key details on population numbers, habitat, and threats such as habitat loss, poaching, and human expansion. The main causes of endangerment for mammals in India are identified as loss of habitat, overexploitation, pollution, deforestation, and illegal hunting. Conservation efforts are needed to protect endangered species and their habitats.
endangered birds in india
The Great Indian Bustard, Red-Headed Vulture, Forest Owlet, and Spoon-Billed Sandpiper are highly endangered bird species found in India. The Great Indian Bustard is the largest flying bird in India, but hunting and habitat loss have caused populations to decline severely. Red-Headed Vultures nearly went extinct due to a veterinary drug, while Forest Owlets were thought extinct but have been rediscovered in small numbers in central Indian forests. The Spoon-Billed Sandpiper has an extremely small global population and faces threats of habitat loss and declining breeding grounds.

PPT on PROJECT TIGER
Project Tiger was initiated in India in 1973 to protect tigers and their habitats. It aims to stabilize tiger populations and ensure viable populations are maintained. Tigers are found in certain conservation units across India and are monitored using technology like GPS and GIS. According to the latest census in 2011, the tiger population in India was estimated to be 1,706 individuals, representing over half of the global wild tiger population. Project Tiger has been largely successful, with populations increasing from 1,411 tigers in 2008.
Wild life census and its role in conservation
By conservation census, all individuals of a population within an area are counted directly. When this is not possible, sampling methods are used to estimate the total population size. Common census methods include quadrat sampling, mark-recapture, distance sampling, camera trapping, and other direct counting techniques. Census data provides information on population status, distributions, behaviors, and is used to inform conservation strategies.
Zoo geographical region of wildlife distribution in india
India has 10 zoo-geographic zones based on wildlife distribution: Trans-Himalayan, Himalayan, Indian Desert, Semi-Arid, Western Ghats, Deccan Plateau, Gangetic Plain, North East, Coastal, and Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The Trans-Himalayan region contains sparse vegetation and wildlife adapted to high altitudes like snow leopards. The Western Ghats and North East regions have high biodiversity and endemism. The Deccan Plateau and Gangetic Plain cover large areas and support diverse but common wildlife.

Evolution powerpoint!
Charles Darwin developed the scientific theory of evolution by natural selection to explain how species change over time through descent with modification from common ancestors. His theory states that genetic variation within species leads to different traits, which are acted on by environmental pressures like competition for resources and predation. Traits that increase survival and reproduction become more common in populations over many generations, resulting in evolution of new species. Darwin provided extensive evidence from biogeography, fossils, embryology and comparative anatomy to support his theory.

Endangered animals
Pileated gibbons and Mexican axolotls are both endangered species. Pileated gibbons live in tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia and are threatened by habitat loss and hunting. They move through the trees and communicate with early morning songs. Mexican axolotls live in lakes in Mexico and face threats from pollution and introduced predators. They can regrow limbs multiple times and lay many eggs in protective coverings. Both species have unique locomotion and breeding behaviors that are threatened as their habitats decline.

Blood count
• Study of the formed cellular blood elements
• Blood is composed of a Liquid called Plasma & of cellular elements (RBC’S, WBC’S & Platelets)
Bioremediation
• Bioremediation – process of cleaning up environmental sites contaminated with chemical pollutants by using living organisms to degrade hazardous materials into less toxic substances
Biogeochemical cycles
• Nutrient cycles referred to as biogeochemical cycles
• Gaseous forms of carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen occur in the atmosphere and cycle globally
• Less mobile elements, including phosphorous, cycle on a more local level
• Still, gains and losses from outside of the ecosystem are generally small when compared to the rate at which nutrients are cycled within the system.

Assisted reproductive technology (ART)
ART refers to methods used to achieve pregnancy by artificial or partially artificial means.
• INCLUDES- artificial insemination, In vitro fertilization (IVF) , Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) or Tubal Embryo Transfer, Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) , Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
Osmoregulation in birds and mammals
Birds and mammals maintain water balance in their bodies through the process of osmoregulation. They regulate the amount of water ingested and excreted to maintain homeostatic water levels. The key organs involved in avian osmoregulation are the kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, and nasal/orbital salt glands. In mammals, the kidneys play a large role through regulating water reabsorption from kidney tubules controlled by hormones like ADH. Desert animals like kangaroo rats have evolved adaptations like fur insulation and nasal passages that capture exhaled water to aid their osmoregulation.
Primary and secondary lymphoid organs
A number of morphologically and functionally diverse organs and tissue organs and tissue contribute to the development of immune responses .
These organs can be distinguished by function as the primary and secondary lymphoid organs .
Protists
In five kingdom classification(scheme proposed by R. Whittaker in 1969), Protists make up a kingdom called “Protista”, composed of “Organisms which are unicellular or unicellular-colonial and which form no tissue.
Protists are the eukaryotes that are not members of the kingdom Plantae, Animalia or Fungi. Most Protists are unicellular, but few have hundreds or even thousands of cells.
Protists can be autotrophic or heterotrophic.
They move by cilia, flagella or pseudopodia.
Pure culture techniques
This document discusses techniques for obtaining pure microbial cultures, including aseptic technique. It describes how Robert Koch established methods to prove that microbes cause specific diseases. Streak plate, pour plate, and spread plate techniques are explained for isolating pure cultures from mixed samples on nutrient agar plates. Maintaining aseptic conditions is important to prevent environmental contamination of cultures. Pure cultures allow study of individual microbial species and are used in research and diagnosis of infectious diseases.

Social organization in honey bees
Honey bees are social insects, which means that they live together in large, well-organized family group.
Communication, complex net construction, environmental control, defense and divison of the labor are just some of the behaviour that honey bees have developed to exist successfully in social colonies.
A honey bees colony typically consists of three kinds of the bees 1) Queen. 2) Workers. 3) Drones.
In addition to thousands of workers adults, a colony normally has a single queen & several hundred drones.
Honey bees live in comb or nest.
Mutual cooperation exist.
