The Indian Antelope Nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus) Appropriate Contender for Domestication could add in Human Society

Abstract

The domestication of animals was part of a major transformation in the way of life of an increasing number of human societies with deep social and spiritual changes. In the present study, we report about utility of Nilgai and the values of its products and how it can add variety in our diet. Domestication of Nilgai may prove as an outstanding diet (veal and juveniles) for human and domesticated carnivores it may be the most important achievements that man-made in his cultural history. It is very useful and has many kinds of beneficial mutualism with man exists. We also prerequisite to reconnoiter biological functions, importance, and distinctiveness of products viz milk, meat, leather and body parts such as skin, teeth, nail and other product in addition to transportation and export, because of their size and powerful appearance. The meat of Nilgai is said to be lighter and milder flavored than that of blackbuck meat. A domesticated animal such as livestock plays a vital role in diversified farming systems because food and recycling of nutrients through the farm are well proven. Nilgai appears to have different color which occurs during the developmental stage, like a fawn, juveniles and adults. Few Nilgai showed some docility behavior in nature subsequently that sighs of taming towards domestication. Nilgai may prove a higher status than other domestic animals when it comes to success in domestication. The Nilgai dwelling near the human habitation in proximity to a close distance in anthropogenic and share with its habitat and graze food and fodders with domestic herbivore mammals like goat, buffalos’ and cow in the periphery of the village’s areas. The domestication of Nilgai corresponds to a pivotal change in history not only of humanity but also of the biosphere.

High Time of Pacing Nilgai Antelope (Boselaphus tragocamelus) into Mainstream as Community Conservation for Influencing Macroeconomics

“…As per record total 3,228 numbers of Nilgais were killed by a professional shooters during 2017-2019 in different districts of Bihar. Some Farmers in Haryana and Bihar state also have taken to electrocuting nilgai but by and large the carcass is buried and not consumed [3,4,7].…”

“…Many research workers reported and expected the suitability of the habitat for undomesticated mammals to depend on the habitat type [26,13]. We expected the home-grown population to use uninhabited / taming Nilgai as a derivation of meat, milk and other by-products for private consumption and a source of income [7,27]. They depend on the demand of the local population as well as export to other countries and the access to the market to earn money.…”

“…In the human history, first 99% flora and fauna were the limited source of nourishment, fibre and medication and tranquil donates a important amount to the well-being of societies [5,6]. Bihar state is one of the ridiculous bequest of mammalian fauna and have abundance of Nilgai and others like an elegant species of Blackbuck, Antelope cervicapra home based to a found in outside protected areas [7,8]. Six species of antelopes are found in India [7].…”

Complications accompanying with superabundant nilgai and others wild mammalian species bringing up the rear their natural habitat and acclimating themselves to the man-altered state of affairs in India [7,10]. The matter of facts, many wild mammals playing significant role in development of the ecological & biological processes with balancing the environment.…”
