Camera trapping is a capture-recapture technique used to document the presence of warm-blooded wild animals. Infrared cameras are set up in the field and take photos whenever an animal passes in front of the camera. The cameras can identify individual tigers based on their unique stripe patterns. Camera traps are also effective for surveying small carnivores. Sites are selected after a reconnaissance survey to identify potential animal activity areas. Digital cameras with infrared and motion sensors are used and placed at heights of 30-40cm apart from each other. The cameras remain active for 10-20 days at each station to photograph animals and record the date and time.

Animal behavior notes
This document discusses animal behavior and how it is influenced by both innate and learned responses. It defines behavior as a response to a stimulus and explains that behavior helps organisms maintain homeostasis to survive and reproduce. The types of stimuli that can trigger behaviors include internal cues like hunger or pain, as well as external cues from predators, mates, or environmental changes. Sensory receptors detect these stimuli and activate the nervous system. Behaviors can be innate or learned through various processes like habituation, observational learning, classical and operant conditioning, play, and insight learning. Both innate behaviors like migration and learned behaviors like language are described.
A BRIEF OVERVIEW ON WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT
Wildlife management aims to maintain desirable wildlife populations and involves understanding population trends, influencing factors, species interactions, and landscape impacts. It addresses the balance between wildlife and human activities. Approaches include modifying animal behavior, human behavior, and interactions through barriers, zoning, and reserves. Depletion results from habitat loss, pollution, and absence of shelter. Conservation approaches encompass protection by law, sanctuaries, research, education, and international agreements like CITES that regulate trade. The goal is sustainable wildlife populations and balancing human and wildlife coexistence.

Specific behaviors discussed include cooperative hunting, trophallaxis, altruism, nest construction, and more. Examples are given of advanced eusocial insect societies like ants, bees, and termites that live in colonies with castes and cooperative care of young.
home range and territoriality.pptx
Home ranges are areas where individual animals carry out normal activities like finding food, water, and shelter. They are not defended from other animals and home ranges of different individuals may overlap. Within a home range is a core area where most activities are concentrated, like around a nest site. The size of home ranges varies depending on factors like body size, sex, diet, habitat, and resources. Territories are smaller defended areas that provide necessary resources and do not overlap with each other. Animals use behaviors like scent marking and aggression to defend territories.
Mimicry (Evolutionary Biology)
When a perfectly harmless animal resembles in its colour and shape, with a well protected species, the phenomenon is called mimicry.
The concept of mimicry was first given by H. W. Bates in 1862.
Mimicry is an important feature of organism which protect the animals against enemies. Mimicry often used as self defense which increases the survival value of organisms.
Adaptive radiation in reptiles copy
This document discusses adaptive radiation in reptiles. It defines adaptive radiation as the diversification of a single ancestor into an array of species occupying different ecological niches. Reptiles underwent adaptive radiation, evolving from ancestral reptiles into terrestrial herbivores and carnivores, burrowing reptiles, aquatic reptiles, and flying reptiles. Specific examples discussed include the adaptive radiation of turtles, Caribbean anoles lizards, pygopodid lizards, and crocodilians. Adaptive radiation is driven by the availability of new resources and ecological niches following mass extinction events or the evolution of new traits that allow entry into new environments.

1. Fixation involves coagulating cell contents to prevent degradation, using formalin for most invertebrates.
2. Preservation methods include storing in alcohol, sorting solution, or drying specimens. Alcohol is the preferred long-term fluid for both vertebrates and invertebrates.
3. Invertebrates can be killed via freezing, liquid chemicals in killing jars, or solid cyanide poisons which are highly dangerous. Freezing is now preferred for safety and specimen well-being.
Innate Behavior (Animal Behavior) Taxis, Fixed Action Pattern, reflex.
Animal behavior includes how animals act and interact with stimuli in their environment. Behaviors can be innate, meaning genetically determined, or learned through experience. Ethology is the scientific study of animal behavior, especially regarding natural environments and evolution. Behaviors increase an animal's chances of survival and reproduction. They can be analyzed based on their causes, development, function, and whether they are innate or learned. Examples of innate behaviors include reflexes, kinesis, taxis, and fixed action patterns.
Courtship Kalyan.pptx
Courtship refers to behavioral interactions between males and females of a species before, during, and after mating. It allows animals to select partners for reproduction and is influenced by evolutionary factors. Courtship behaviors serve to find mates, persuade females, synchronize reproduction, and promote reproductive isolation. Examples of courtship discussed include spiders presenting gifts to females, scorpions' promenade dance, fish nest-building and egg-fertilization, amphibian sound-making, reptile dancing, bird head-bobbing, and elephant trunk-caressing. Courtship is essential for successful reproduction and continuation of species.
Social behavior of mammals
This document summarizes the social behaviors of various mammal orders and families. It discusses how social systems are patterns of interrelationships between individuals and groups. Some key points made include:
- Metatherians like honey gliders and whiptail wallabies form cohesive groups dominated by males. Male vombats develop and share burrows with kin.
- Bats form nursery groups of females and young that later reunite with males. They have varying mating systems from solitary to multi-male, multi-female groups.
- Rodents like prairie dogs form family groups called coteries for protection, vigilance, and territory maintenance. Lemurs form troops dominated by females.
- Primates like
Wildlife management techniques and methods of wildlife conservation
Wildlife Conservation is the practice of protecting wild plant and animal species and their habitat. Wildlife plays an important role in balancing the environment and provides stability to different natural processes of nature. The goal of wildlife conservation is to ensure that nature will be around for future generations to enjoy and also to recognize the importance of wildlife and wilderness for humans and other species alike. Many nations have government agencies and NGO's dedicated to wildlife conservation, which help to implement policies designed to protect wildlife. Numerous independent non-profit organizations also promote various wildlife conservation causes.
Wildlife conservation has become an increasingly important practice due to the negative effects of human activity on wildlife. An endangered species is defined as a population of a living species that is in the danger of becoming extinct because the species has a very low or falling population, or because they are threatened by the varying environmental or prepositional parameters.

Foraging behaviour
This document discusses various aspects of foraging behavior and habitat selection in organisms. It explains that foraging is how organisms obtain energy and nutrients from their environment. Habitat selection involves animals choosing habitats based on factors like genes, imprinting, and tradition. Two theories of habitat selection are discussed: the optimal foraging model, which predicts which habitat an animal should select to maximize benefits, and the ideal free distribution model, which predicts how individuals distribute themselves for highest fitness. Optimal foraging theory holds that organisms will optimize their energy budgets by maximizing energy intake and minimizing costs. Social foraging is also covered, where animals forage collectively and share information about food sources. The concept of territoriality and functions of establishing territories are then
3.1. Breeding of carps in bundhs.ppt
Bundhs are tanks or impoundments that simulate riverine conditions for carp breeding during monsoon months. Dry bundhs are seasonal while wet bundhs are perennial. Dry bundhs, popular in West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh, consist of storage ponds, hatcheries, and sluice gates for draining water to allow multiple spawnings per season. Wet bundhs in West Bengal are larger ponds that fill with monsoon rainfall, providing a single annual spawning opportunity. Both bundh types provide controlled environments to induce carp breeding through water level manipulation.

This document provides information about rodents in India. It states that rodents comprise the largest order of mammals, with over 2,200 species worldwide. In India, there are 8 rodent families and over 100 species. The most common families are murids (rats and mice) and sciurids (squirrels). Rodents play important ecological roles as prey for other animals, through seed dispersal and pollination. They also impact soils, vegetation, and food webs. Though some rodent species are considered agricultural pests, many are threatened in India. The conservation status of the rodent order is of concern, with over 30% of species considered vulnerable, endangered or critically endangered.

Camera trapping, wildlife Biology
- 1. Survey technique- CAMERA TRAPPING Objective: To document the presence of warm-blooded wild animals Principle: The technique is capture-recapture, infra-red cameras are set within the field. The camera clicks whenever a warm blooded animal crosses the camera line. In case of a tiger, each individual has distinctive stripe pattern using which the individual level identification can also be possible, if we recapture the same individual. Camera traps are efficient for surveying small carnivores also. Site Selection Reconnaissance survey in study location will help to identify the potential activity sites of the animal. Method Camera trapping technique is the one of the best methods for species documentation. Digital camera with infra-red sensors for heat and motion detection sensor (Model: Cuddeback Attack C1) is generally used nowadays. Based on the detection of indirect evidences of the animals total number of camera trap stations can be fixed. The camera traps were set at a height of 30cm – 40cm above the ground and at least 150m apart from each other. The cameras were set up in default mode. The camera trap locations can be marked using a GPS. The cameras can be kept active for 24 hours a day and remain working there for 10-20 days in each station, it can vary according to convenience. The date and time of exposure are automatically recorded on the images, as and when the images are taken. Analysis: Computer programme MARK is sued for the analysis
