"The Elegant Antelope “We are beginning to realize the almost irreparable loss in such cruel and barbaric practices as hunting and killing innocent creatures for pleasure… whose sole offence is Being Beautiful” - Joseph Goodavage In the 19th Century, blackbucks roamed in open plains from the base of the Himalayas to the area of Cape Comorin, and from Punjab to Lower Assam. The blackbuck population is now confined to a few small pockets in North India, thanks mostly to poaching for their beautiful horns. Irrational destruction of wild plants and herbs, excessive constructions in open areas and speeding vehicles are other common reasons. Farmers viewed blackbucks as crop-raiders, further contributing to their decline. Unfortunately, if we don’t curb our selfishness today, the only place our future generation may get to see these beautiful creatures would be in picture books.
