Summary:

Apart from these, it is also important to know the movement pattern of leopards, and identify and delineate the leopard movement corridor. "Vinod Kumar, conservator of forest, Gurgaon circle, said the study would help arrive at a proper estimation of the total population of leopards in the area. "The study will help find out populations of leopard, hyena and other species of animals and birds. This has made the background for a study of leopards in this landscape for a longer duration. This creates an antipathy among local people towards conservation of leopards," reads the proposal prepared by the wildlife officials in Gurgaon district..
