THE WAY most of us treat animals is just deplorable. Man is just not friendly towards other beings. Humans consider themselves the owner of this planet. As its most intelligent beings they take for granted their position and behave in the worst possible manner when it comes to dealing with other beings in this world.

Many birds and animal species are experiencing population decline in Pakistan because of illegal hunting for sport, meat and trade. There is a strong tradition of hunting in the subcontinent and its impact has increased with the spread of modern weapons and greater means of mobility. Virtually all the large mammals have declined in number and their range has been reduced in our country.

The government has banned big-game hunting through regulations, except community-controlled areas with an existing limitation on exact kinds and numbers of species as well as countries they can be exported to. However, unabated illegal hunting is leading to the continuous loss, fragmentation and degradation of natural habitats that include forests, rangelands, and freshwater and marine ecosystem.

In 1975, the government enacted the Wildlife Conservation and Preservation Act, ratified the Convention of Biological Diversity, and in 1994 prepared a Biodiversity Action Plan. However, the inability of government to regulate legal hunting makes the preservation methods ineffective and increases the incentive for local people to hunt illegally.

Species threatened in Pakistan due to illegal trade include the Houbara Bustard, Snow Leopard, turtles, tortoises, snakes, other birds, and mammals like the Musk Deer.
