The South India times : More than 300 endangered black bucks roaming around six villages in Karnataka’s Vijayapora district are at risk from poachers, highway traffic and electrical fencing by farmers, wildlife activists have said. The black bucks have been spotted roaming around the Indi Taluk in herds, they say. Dhruv Patil, a wildlife activist, has approached the Forest Department to protect them.
“These blackbucks have been freely moving around in areas with highways. These beautiful animals may fall victims to poaching,” he said.
