Baby Bhakat
Hi!
My name is Bhakat.
I am a baby Civet cat.
I am three month old.
Shhh!
I am taking a nap with my brothers.
Yes, I live in a family of humans.
They treat me like their own Baby!
My home is a little thatched hut by a river in a small village in Assam.
The hut has an earthen floor and mud-splattered walls.
Its doors are always open.
I come and go as I please!
Mama takes care of all three of us!
Her name is Anjali.
She cooks, cleans and plays with me.
I secretly think she loves me the most.
She lets me be real naughty!
Mama is about to make brunch!
She is making roti and vegetables.
I don’t like vegetables, but I like fruits.
I love meat.
I am omnivorous.
Mama always feeds me before anyone else!
I love things dipped in milk.
They are yummy!
The man of the house is Dharini.
If not for him, I would not be alive today!
My civet mother built a nest for me in a very tall coconut tree.
One night I slipped and fell to the ground!
When villagers found me they took me to Dharini.
Dharini loves animals.
I began to live in his home.
I was very small.
I could not walk.
I ate and slept a lot!
Do you know why my eyes are so large?
That’s because I am a nocturnal animal.
I sleep in the day and am active in the night.
My large eyes help me see better in the dark!
I also have a very long tail!
It helps me balance on tree-tops and branches.
I mostly live on trees, though I do come down to the ground.
Animals like me are called arboreal!
Inside Dharini’s house, I always snooze in the rafters.
I like being high up; it reminds me of trees!
One day I woke up to find a strange sight, Dharini’s house was filling with water!
In the night, the river behind the house started overflowing its banks!
Inside everything was helter-skelter.
Things were piled on top of one another!
The monsoon had arrived!
Dharini and Anjali carried us babies outside the house!
There was water everywhere and it was very muddy!
But the sun was out and it was not raining!
I stayed high on the fence and made sure even my long tail did not get wet!
Dharini went to pick snails.
Snails had climbed branches and walls to escape drowning in the flood!
Every gardener knows that snails eat plants.
By eating snails, I ensure that they do not overrun your garden.
I maintain the balance of life in nature!
When it floods, you find fish everywhere!
Dharini cast his net in the garden and began catching fishes.
They are kept in a pan of water to keep them alive and fresh to eat!
Montu, my brother, tried to be naughty!
He caught me and threatened to dip me in water!
He got a scolding from Dharini.
I hate to be in water!
Back inside the house, it is time for me to play with Mama!
I shall rest awhile and then be up again at night.
Mama always leaves a midnight snack by the lantern!

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow.
It’s not easy having Elephants in your backyard.
Around the world, as communities expand, and natural wild places are reduced, people and wildlife are increasingly coming into conflict over living space and food.
It might be baboons in Namibia attacking young goats or elephants in Nepal eating crops or European bears and wolves killing livestock.
The problem is universal, affects rich and poor, and is bad news for all concerned.
Look Up

Understand
 | The impacts are often huge. People lose their crops and livestock (and therefore a source of income and food security), property, and sometimes their lives — even a severe injury caused by wildlife can result in a loss of livelihood. The animals, some of which are already threatened or even endangered, are sometimes killed in retaliation or to prevent future conflicts. Human-wildlife conflict is happening more and more, affecting a lot of different species. The effects of climate change will probably make the problem worse. | coexistence conflict endangered livestock retaliation

How we are tackling human-wildlife conflict
The solutions are often specific to the wildlife or area concerned, and are often creative and simple — for instance planting a barrier of crops that repel the animals (elephants and some other wildlife don’t like chilli, for example).
An important aspect of the work is that it benefits both the animals and local people and actively involves the communities concerned (in the case of chilli, it can be sold to increase income).
It’s about finding solutions that lead to mutually beneficial coexistence.
The work has also often led to people being more enthusiastic and supportive of conservation, and has demonstrated that people can live alongside wildlife while developing sustainable livelihoods.

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow.
Animal rights People who support animal rights recognise that all animals have an inherent worth, a value completely separate from their usefulness to humans.
Every being with a will to live has the right to live free from exploitation and suffering.
Look Up
and
Understand
 | All animals have the ability to suffer in the same way and to the same degree that humans do. They feel pain, pleasure, fear, frustration, loneliness, and familial love. Whenever we consider doing something that would interfere with their needs, we are morally obligated to take them into account. | consideration exploitation familial
 | People often ask if animal rights mean that animals should have the right to vote or drive a car. Of course, that would be silly because those aren’t rights that would benefit animals. But animals have the right not to suffer at the hands of humans and to live their lives free from suffering and exploitation because they have an interest in doing so. That is the difference between equal consideration and equal treatment. | inherent

Almost everyone cares about animals in some context, whether it’s a beloved family companion, an irresistibly cute kitten or a majestic wild animal seen in a documentary.
After all, we each have some built-in capacity for empathy and compassion, as can
 | be seen from the lengths that children often go to in order to help | animals.
 | arbitrary compassion | Logically and morally, there is no reason to differentiate in the way we treat the animals we share our homes with and those who are farmed for food. They are all individuals, with the same capacity to feel pain and fear. Animal rights help us to look past the arbitrary distinctions between different species, to rediscover our innate compassion, and to respect all animals equally.
 | documentary empathy | Anyone who cares about animals can start putting these principles into practice every single day with the food they eat, the clothes they wear, and the products they buy. These choices are a form of non-violent protest that makes a real difference both by reducing the profits of corporations that harm or kill animals and by creating a growing market for cruelty-free food, fashion, services, and entertainment.

The incident took place in Bawamohatra, a village in Bemetra district of Chhattisgarh.
The residents of Bawamohatra gathered near the community pond and started weeping after they saw that the crocodile had died.
The villagers were emotionally attached to the reptile and were heartbroken after his death.
About 500 people of the small village attended the last rites of their beloved crocodile, Gangaram.
The over three-metre long crocodile was buried in Chhattisgarh’s Bawamohatra village after his last rites were performed by the villagers.
A forest department official estimated that the crocodile was 130 years old.
The crocodile was carried to its funeral on a tractor decorated with flowers and garlands.
The villagers say Gangaram was friendly.
Even the kids of the village could swim around him. He had never harmed or attacked anyone.
He was not a crocodile but a friend and a divine creature for them, who was worshipped in this village.
Some say that he would even eat rice and dal which was served by the villagers and kids.
He was very understanding and if he saw anyone swimming near him, he used to go to the other side of the pond.
Villagers used to identify themselves with the crocodile as people used to call this village — Magarmachha vala gaaon, the Crocodile’s village.
In fact, the villagers now wish to build a statue of Gangaram near the pond to remember their friend, who got the village a new name.
It may be weird, but it could be an example of how humans and animals can coexist without harming each other.",jewe206.pdf
