Endangered birds: poke cryostats, Phalarocorax carob, Anhinga ruff, neoprene
percnopterus, Leptoptilos javancus, plegadis falcinellus, A. anser, Carina
scutulata, Haliaeetus leucoryphus, Anthropoidis virgo, Rostratula bengalensis, Esacus
magnirostris and Palargopsis capanesis (IUCN, 1992).
Poachers unavailable in hunt flora
and fauna this time encompassing, as wandering birds have flock to marshlands
and water-bodies with wintry weather shoplifting above the country. Although
the wildlife preservation act prohibits hunting migratory birds and wild
animals, the law is not being implemented. Open sales of wild and migratory
birds by traders all over the city have become all too flagrant. Officials
blamed the laxity of the anti-hunting drive on lack of manpower in the wildlife
conservatory section of the reforest subdivision. One of them cited lack of
knowledge as an additional cause for the rise in flora and fauna captures. The
law imposes punishment of a six-month imprisonment, which can be extended to a
year or a fine of up to Tk 1,000 or both, along with confiscation of firearms,
vehicles, vessels, watercrafts, appliances or any other apparatus worn in
hunting.
