Subject: Status report on Yak of the Himalayas
Dear Sir
This is with reference to our earlier discussions regarding status of yaks and plans for a better future for them in the Himalayas. The following are my findings and recommendations :
As you may be aware, currently, yaks are limited to the upperlands of the Himalayas. But the area of their habitat is shrinking at an alarming rate.
We will also empathise 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 an extinct species like Dodo.
I want to request you to take proper steps to improve the ground situation. Certain area can be earmarked as reserve area for yaks. Local people should be educated about the problem and taken into confidence. You will agree with me that people participation is important for the success of such programmes. The reserve 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 programme needs to be chalked out in the Himalayan region. Apart from that other suitable areas should be discovered for 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 of this planet. Anmol Saxena (Conservationist)
