Subject: Status report on yak of Himalayas
Dear sir,
This is with reference to our earliest discussions regarding status of yaks and
plans for better future for them in the Himalayas. The following are my
findings and recommendations:
As you may be aware, currently, the yaks are limited to the upper-lands of the
Himalayas. But the area of their habitat is shrinking at an alarming rate.
It is worth your attention that part of this problem has come because of
increasing human activity in the region. The growing human population forces
people to encroach into forest areas. Moreover, growing industrial activities
and vehicular population have led to an increase in overall temperature of the
region. This, coupled with the global warming, is further reducing the size of
the glaciers and in turn changing the climate drastically.
You will also empathize with the plight of yaks. They are facing a loss of
their habitat and increased danger of poaching from humans. There is every
likelihood that a day will come when yak will be extinct like Dodo.
I want to request you to take proper steps to improve the ground
situation. Certain area can be earmarked as reserve areas for yaks. Local
people should be educated about the problem and take into confidence. You will
agree with me that people participation is important for the success of such
problems. The reserved area should be manned with people with relevant skills
to implement the protection programme as per plan.
As yaks are facing a real danger to their existence a concrete conservation
programmes needs to be chalked out in the Himalayan regions. Apart from that
other suitable areas should be discovered for the expansion of yak
population. As the most advanced species of this planet this is the
responsibility of humans to take care of other living creatures on this planet.
