  • A great place to camp,fish and hunt(old days)-The place always had elephant,bison,tiger ,panther and other varieties of game-One needed to be quite careful in this somewhat hostile country and survival skills were required-In the late 60,s and early 70,s cattle were allowed to graze and this badly degraded the forests ,waterways and caused the wildlife to relocate-Cattle has destroyed Africa and many rural areas in India-The return from these cattle is miniscule and is a away of life rather than a business-Given the disparity of use and damage they should not be given approval to damage the ecosystems in this everheating world -There is no benefit of large herds of cattle roaming wild in precious country-Alan Duncan
