BANGALORE: Pass through the wild, but don't party in it. That's the message of the forest department to New Year revellers.
While there is a great deal of enthusiasm among youngsters to party bang in the middle of the forest, experts say this is not very good for wildlife. They advise people to stay within the wild but remain quiet and enjoy the serenity. Stay green within the greens.
One of the few things you could do for the green and wild is to avoid crowding at forest areas, which have a wildlife. Most of Karnataka's beauty lies in its forest, be it Bandipur or Nagarhole or even Chikmagalur.
Save animals
Animals don't just get disturbed by the noise made by reveling humans; they are also affected by massive littering of plastic cups, bottles or packets. Too much vehicular traffic in these zones is also not a good idea.
"I went to Bandipur last week, and there was high traffic due to Christmas. Due to traffic itself animals get killed and there is much more tourist influx in the parks. Many a times I have noticed that people party on the fringes or bordering areas of parks, they have loud music and flashy lights," said assistant director, wildlife conservation society, Sanjay Gubbi.
According to principal chief conservator of forests (PCCF), B K Singh, the tourist influx to the parks has increased multifold but they are trying to fix a minimum number of people who can go in to the parks.
So the idea is to get to the wild, pass by it, but not party right in the heart of it. Else stay within the wild and enjoy its quiet environs.
