3. Jim Corbett was fond of hunting but later turned into a naturalist. One day three military officers accompanying him fired at a batch of waterfowl and killed 300 hundred of them. He had shut his eyes but when he saw such uninhabited and merciless shooting just for the sake of pleasure he was shaken up. He had a change of heart and decided to work for the preservation of wild life rather than harm them.
4. He had wandered through the jungles of the terai and bhabar in his childhood when there were ten tigers. Now after fifty years when he had spent thirty-two years in pursuit of man-eaters, he believes firmly that tiger is defamed and its evil character is emphasized in the society.
5. Young children have impressionable minds and can be moulded in the right way, Jim Corbett often visited schools, interacted with students and lectured them about wild life preservation. He would show documentaries, mimic animals to enable students realize the beauty of wild life and the need to protect it. He wanted them to realize that we should let animals live.
