Trebute to Dr. A.J.T Johnsingh: BNHS and Haper Collins to Publish ‘Mammals of India’

-

In a tribute to the late Dr. A.J.T. Johnsingh, two of India’s literary giants, Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) and HarperCollins India, have come together to publish a groundbreaking book, “Mammals of India”. Co-authored by Dr. A.J.T. Johnsingh and P.O. Nameer, this comprehensive guide will cover all 428 species of Indian mammals, making it the first of its kind.

The book is not just a taxonomic guide but a detailed reference, including IUCN Red List, CITES Appendix, and Indian Wildlife Protection Act schedules. It will also feature information on taxonomy, English names, distribution maps, population data, and habitat insights. Accompanied by well-crafted illustrations, this publication promises to be an essential resource for wildlife enthusiasts, researchers, and conservationists.

Dr. Johnsingh’s legacy in wildlife conservation and research lives on through this ambitious project, further enhancing the understanding of India’s rich mammalian diversity.
