Conservation sometimes kills
Endling noun The very last individual of a species.These are not trophy tales of the wildlife photographer or his ancestor, the hunter. Nor are these entreaties of the save-the-world variety. Curious and clinical, irreverent but reasoned, these essays and exposes by one of India's best-known investigative journalists and wildlife reporters, Jay Mazoomdaar, raise fascinating questions to better understand the Human-Nature interfaces in an increasingly crowded and edgy India. Alongside the gripping whodunit and the sobering myth-buster are the stories of a cursed river, a tiger reserve on sale, a desert snake that 'breathes' death, a tribe that threatens to die if forced out of its forests and a species destined to become the loneliest on earth.The result of over a decade of investigations in the Indian wild and the human ecosystem around it, The Age of Endlings is as compelling as it is unflinching.

Autoren-Porträt von Jay Mazoomdaar
Jay Mazoomdaar is a journalist, traveller and, occasionally, a film-maker. Born in Calcutta, he grew up riding Bon - the black family mutt - by a pond under a giant mango tree; later feasting on, among others, Gavaskar, Maradona, Satyajit Ray, Mujtaba Ali, Bibhutibhushan, Conan Doyle and Corbett. He moved to Delhi after scraping through Joyce, Foucault, and a university degree in 1996.
