Thakur Dutt Joshi was better known as Mini Corbett for the courage and resilience he showed as a member of the forest department. He cared for the forest, and the wildlife and valued the lives of the villagers living near the forests just like Jim.

This book is a collection of chilling but true stories of man-animal conflicts in the hill regions of northern India. While each of the stories are heartwrenching, they also throw light on the human impact on wildlife and how we must face to the consequences of our own greed.
