Supplement to Khan 2012 - Technological enhancements needed in photo-trap approach for forthright use by tiger population managers
2012 Journal of Threatened Taxa (4): 2551-2552
The fundamental lesson given to budding Wildlife Managers of 1970s was that if they were sure about the continued existence of a healthy population of predator (tiger) at the apex of the ecological pyramid they may draw a logical conclusion that the herbivore and the vegetative habitat forming the lower strata of the pyramid were also in sound conditions. If correctly implemented the status of large cats can indeed be accurately assessed while it is not within possible reach of such order for herbivores or the vegetation. This is true even today.
