The Nilgai is not a sacred animal, neither is it an animal from the 'milk herd', I never said that,but, I repeat, some areas in Northern India have people who consider the animal closely related to the cow, and get very nasty when they are shot. This is a fact, I do not agree with it, I never agreed with it, but it is a problem, especially for the farmers, as they do some considerable crop damage. In fact the bulls have been known to turn aggressive when chased off the fields.
As far as poached animals are concerned, Elephant , (the god, Ganpathi) are also poached, as are Hanuman Langurs(the monkey god, hanuman) and so are peafowl.This doesn't stop them getting shot.
Bar headed geese breed in the main, on a lake in Tibet.Their numbers are comparitively low, they don't eat well, are not particularly good flyers,and are pretty stupid, in that they will decoy into pages of crushed newspaper. Why would a real sportsman want to shoot them?
I have walked the hills of Mussoorie, it takes the best part of a day to walk from one hill to another. Walked up pheasant? I think not.
Tigers will not be extinct in India within 10 years, I am willing to bet on it.

Talking about evidence, anyone who is a member of the AR forums is invited to do a search on dj, go down to the bottom half of the page, and you will read, and I quote 'DJ, I apologise'.Then read the name of the man who wrote it.
McNaughton , the other bird your college lecturer was probably referring to may have been the Chukor, a mountain partridge.
I did mention that I did not want to be confrontational or offensive, unfortunately it has gone down that road, so very much like exchanging views and general chat around a campfire, if it becomes unpleasant, one simply gets up and leaves.
Adios
