Jim Corbett A Great Hunter but best friend of "Tigers"
In 1957, the name of the Halley National Park of Uttarakhand (then Uttar Pradesh) was changed to Jim Corbett's name. Jim Corbett died on April 19, 1955 two years ago. Corbett was a famous hunter. It seems amazing that why a sanctuary is named after the name of a hunter. After all, the work of a hunter has not changed.
Jim Corbett's personality was such. He was a hunter who had hunted dozens of tigers and leopards. The hunt for Corbett was more than a hobby. For them, these animals were more than hunting. But most of the creatures targeted by Corbett were man-eating. Even after hunting the man-eating, he had a sense of good sense in his mind too.In his book Man-Eaters of Kumaon, Corbett writes, "A man-eating tiger is a tiger which, due to circumstances, had to adopt a diet which is different from its nature. Nine to ten cases, these conditions are caused by wounds and the rest is behind it.He loved life through nature and always advocated its protection. On the declining population of tigers in India, he said, 'The tiger is a big-hearted species, which has immense courage - if it is over, then India will lose its most beautiful part of wildlife and become poor.'
Edward Jim Corbett was born on 25 July 1875 at Nainital. Then Nainital was a hilly district of India's United Provinces, United Provinces. At the age of 18, he started working as a railway.
Jim Corbett never married He will spend most of his life with his elder sister, Corbett Maggi and lived in the middle of Nainital local village people.
It is said that between 1907 and 1938, Jim Corbett hunted 33 hunters and killed them. According to official records, these man-eating had killed about 1200 people.Jim always liked hunting alone.
