WHY NATURE TOURISM?
Wildlife tourism is an important platform to investigate
the relationship between people and nature. Given that
wildlife destinations are likely to receive higher tourism
demand from new emerging economies, this article
considers the wider emotional and psychological
implications of wildlife watching. The growing
significance of this tourist activity is a potential
reawakening of a deeper ecological sub-consciousness
brought about by a society that is disconnected from
nature. Particular attention is given to the importance
of experiencing nature first hand, the psychological
benefits, and the emotional responses that may
engender a relationship of care. This is good for both
the human spirit and for nature conservation.

NATURE RESORT
• Wilderness(meaning )-uncultivated, uninhabited
land.

“A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man

and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby
recognized as an area where the earth and its
community of life are untrammeled by man, where
man himself is a visitor who does not remain”

• Wilderness areas are important because they provide

long-term protection to the last of our nation’s wild
landscapes — places that possess spectacular beauty,
offer outstanding solitude, support native plants and
animals, protect valuable water resources, shelter
ancient cultural artifacts, provide opportunities for
primitive recreation, and maintain resiliency in the
face of global climate change.

• AIM – To build a resort near a forest/sanctuary

containing activities for all age groups
• Resort - a place that is frequented for holidays or
recreation or for a particular purpose

8
• AIM- To promote NATURE as tourism .to
protect nature and wildlife and also wildlife
can act as the best getaway from the city
traffic
• A place which includes
• Adventure tourism- trekking, hiking etc
( age group-18-35)
• Nature based tourism- views, flora
fauna( includes families)
• wildlife getaway for all age groups
and bringing them close to nature
• Located at the border of a
forest/sanctuary
• Using eco friendly materials
The benefits of nature intertwine and
overlap. Animals photographed for
recreational purposes also have aesthetic
value. Regardless of the classification of
their benefit, it is obvious that managing
plants and animals is beneficial for the
environment and for human interests.
When making and implementing decisions
regarding wildlife, a wildlife manager must
consider the big picture and look beyond
the short-term affects. This long-term/
approach to wildlife management will
ensure that nature will continue to
benefit people for generations.

Nature’s Cure
I. Eco psychologists such as Gottschalk (2001) trace a direct line
between the health of the natural world and the health of
the mind, and claim that people can suffer from “nature
deficit disorder,” which Louv (2011) describes as diminished
use of the senses, attention difficulties, and higher rates of
physical and emotional illness. The need for respite provides
an explanation of why restorative natural environments are
often sought in leisure and tourism settings. Indeed people
choose natural settings when asked to describe a “favorite
place” or a “place they would like to be”

The Psychological Benefits of

Experiencing Wildlife in its Natural
Setting
I. Studies on wildlife tourism have shown how being situated
in nature and immersed in watching animal or bird behavior
allows participants to experience a sense of flow, a peak
experience, a loss of time, and a deep sense of
wonderment and connection with the natural world.
II. Kaplan asserts that although snapshot experiences of
beautiful landscapes can temporarily lift one’s moods,
extended dialogues with wildlife can restore people
psychologically and allow opportunities for inner
contemplation and change. The deepest and strongest
attachments between people and natural occurrences give
rise to “spiritual” experiences in which people feel a sense
of connection with a larger reality that helps give meaning
to their own lives

14
Affective Wildlife
Tourism
Wildlife tourism, particularly when conducted in small
groups with a wildlife guide, can be instrumental in
reawakening our connection and love of nature. A
unique combination of interpretation and embodied
tourist experiences can elicit feelings of wonderment,
awe, and engagement; thereby facilitating lasting
sensory impressions, emotional affinities, new
environmental awareness and interests, and treasured
memories.

“The combination of emotional affinity with a reflective,

cognitive response appears to have the most powerful
impact on visitors, leading to a concern and respect not
only for the specific individuals encountered in the
wildlife tourism experience, but the species as a whole. In
this way, the wildlife experience made environmental
issues more personal and relevant to them”

15
Planning and
Managing Wildlife
Tourism
When planning and managing wildlife tourism, there
are number of areas that are required to be taken
into consideration. The planning and management
of wildlife tourism is primarily based upon the
places, where the individuals are planning a visit.
The measures that are vital to be taken into
consideration for the planning and management of
wildlife tourism are safety and preventive measures,
preservation of forests, alleviating pollution,
generation of awareness, care of elderly family
members and children and management of other
areas.
These have been stated as follows:
1. Safety and preventive measures
2. Preservation of forests
3. Preventing pollution
4. Generation of awareness
5. Care of elderly family members and children
6. Management of other areas

16
• Safety and Preventive Measures - One of the important
aspects that one needs to take into consideration are
the safety measures. The types of safety measures
usually depend upon the places, where the individuals
are planning a visit. For instance, in places such as zoo or
circus, the animals are kept captive, hence, the
individuals do not have to be much concerned regarding
their safety. On the other hand, in national parks, like
Ranthambhore in Rajasthan, when the individuals make
a visit, it is vital for them to wear proper attire, do not
roam around freely and be secure within the bus that is
used for the journey. The effective implementation of
safety and preventive measures make the individuals
feel secure and they are able to fulfil their needs and
objectives. As it has been stated above that in some
cases, individuals have an aim or an objective to fulfil
and wildlife tourism is not just planned for the purpose
of recreation or leisure.
• Preservation of Forests – Forests are regarded to be of
utmost significance for the sustenance of the living
conditions of the individuals. Forests make provision of
variety of materials and products. These benefit not only
the individuals, belonging to rural and tribal
communities, but also the individuals, belonging to
urban areas. Forests serve as the habitat for wild
animals, when deforestation takes place, then it is
apparent that it would lead to extinction of wildlife.
Hence, with the extinction of wildlife, there would be a
decline in wildlife tourism. In the present existence,
forests are being cut down, with the main purpose of
obtaining the wood, as it is used for multiple purposes.
But there have been formulation of laws, stating that
preservation of forests, would lead to preservation of
wildlife. 17
Preventing Pollution – Preventing pollution, primarily water pollution is
regarded to be of utmost significance. In India, there are number of
rivers that are getting polluted. The effects of water pollution are
negative upon the aquatic animals. Research has indicated that
individuals obtain water from the water bodies for the purpose of
carrying out the household responsibilities as well as for the activities of
daily living. The individuals residing in rural and tribal communities, do
experience scarcity of water and hence, they are required to obtain it
from the wells or water bodies. It is vital for the individuals to acquire an
understanding that they need to keep the water bodies free from
pollution. Dumping of waste materials into the rivers and lakes is one of
the primary factors that is causing water pollution. In the present
existence, there is an emergence of a law, if individuals dump waste into
the water bodies or cause their pollution in any form, then they would
be penalized. Hence, alleviation of water pollution is regarded as an
imperative factor that is used to preserve and manage wildlife within
the water bodies.
Generation of Awareness – When the individuals are on the course of
their wildlife tourism, it is essential for them to pay proper attention and
generate awareness in terms of important areas. When individuals are
walking, then it is vital for them to be cautious of various perils and
dangers, especially near the water bodies. Mostly there are sign boards,
around which state ‘Danger ahead’, in case there are any aspects, which
may impose detrimental consequences upon the individuals. When
individuals read them, then they are able to adequately manage their
wildlife tourism. Whereas, when the individuals are unable to generate
awareness regarding various risks, then they may even risk their lives.
There have been an increase in the mortality rate as well as accidents,
just because of the lack of attention on the part of the individuals.
Usually, within the course of wildlife tourism, the individuals pay
attention to other aspects within the natural environment and they get
subjected to accidents. 18
Care of Elderly Family Members and Children – Usually children,
who are below 18 years of age and elderly family members also
may get engaged in wildlife tourism. In the case of these individuals,
it is vital to pay adequate attention. There have been cases, when
children have been prone to major accidents, just because their
parents did not pay adequate attention to them. On the other hand,
when individuals are not ambulatory, then it is vital to make
provision of wheel chairs or walking sticks. In addition, for the
effective management of wildlife tourism, it is essential for the
individuals to carry drinking water and refreshments with them.
Normally, wildlife tourism involves long walks or in safaris,
individuals even take rides and for this purpose, it is necessary for
the individuals to boost their energy levels. In addition, the
individuals should not carry much load in the form of bags or other
items, as when they may carry excessive baggage or loads, then
they would arise impediments within the course of their tourism
activities.
Management of Other Areas – Management of other areas are
regarded as important aspects in the wildlife tourism. The other
areas include, there should be a guide, who may be vested with the
responsibilities to provide adequate guidance and direction to the
individuals, who are primarily visiting for the first time and
especially the individuals, belonging to foreign countries. In
addition, there should be provision of restrooms and resting places
for the individuals. The environmental conditions should be
adequately maintained with posters and signboards. In addition, the
provision of maps also render a significant contribution in providing
proper direction to the individuals. Usually, when guides are not
available, then the individuals are required to plan their wildlife
tourism activities in accordance to the knowledge and information
available through signboards and maps. In most cases, when
individuals do not feel comfortable walking, they make use of
19
vehicles.
 Forest, Biodiversity and
Land Use in India
• Great variation in the climatic conditions has provided
appearance to the variety of forest types, including tropical and sub-
tropical forests in the Western Ghats and eastern Himalayas,
temperate and alpine forests in central and western Himalayan and
desert forests in the arid and semi-arid regions of the county. The
6,78,333 km, constituting 20.64 percent of the geographical area is
under the forest cover in the country. Very dense forest (VDF),
however accounts for only 1.56 percent, while the moderately dense
forest (MDF) and open forest account for 10.32 percent and 8.76
percent respectively. The total forest and tree cover of the country is
estimated to account for 23.68 percent of the country’s land
(Chapter 3, n.d.).
• India contains a great wealth of biodiversity in its forests,
wetlands and marine areas. The country has seven percent of the
mammals, 12.6 percent birds, 62 percent reptiles, 4.4 percent
amphibians, 11.7 percent fishes and six percent plants of the world.
The Western Ghats and eastern Himalayas are biodiversity hotspots.
The faunal species within the country is estimated to be about
81,000, representing about 6.4 percent of the world’s fauna. The
number of plant species within the country is estimated to be over
45,000 representing about seven percent of world’s flora, including
1228 birds, 428 reptiles, 372 mammals, 204 amphibians and 2546
fish species. India is home to 14 biosphere reserves, of which three
are in the world network of biosphere reserve i.e. Sundarbans, Gulf
of Mannar and Nilgiri (Chapter 3, n.d.).

20
Environmental, Social and
Cultural Impacts and Human-
Wildlife Conflicts
• Wildlife tourism can cause significant disturbances to the animals in their natural
habitats. When individuals plan wildlife safaris, then usually animals hid
themselves that they would be harmed or hunted by the human beings. Wildlife
tourism usually scare the animals, especially, during the sensitive times of their
life-cycle, and have an antagonistic effect on breeding. Feeding of wildlife by the
tourists can bring about transformations in the social behaviour patterns. For
example, artificial feeding by the tourists caused a breakdown of the territorial
breeding system of land iguanas in the Galapagos Islands. Humans as well as the
animals can experience unfavourable effects as a result of wildlife tourism. These
are primarily in the form of accidents. The social and cultural influences related to
tourism may include: changes to the family structure and gender roles, leading to
an increase in stress and anxiety and loss of self-esteem for the individuals and
older generations; dilution of local languages and culture; loss of artefacts and
access to private sacred sites; and influences on the health and integrity of the
local cultural systems (Impact of Tourism on Wildlife Conservation, 2013).
• Although wildlife is an appreciated natural resource that brings a range of benefits
to the individuals. In some regions, e.g. Africa, wild animals may impose
unfavourable effects upon the individuals. The unfavourable effects could be in
terms of attacks on people and livestock, damage to crops and other property,
such as infrastructure, and disruption of peaceful existence of local communities,
living close to wildlife areas. Increase in the human populations brings with it an
increasing encroachment into the wildlife habitat, e.g. settlements, cattle posts,
farmlands and so forth (Impact of Tourism on Wildlife Conservation, 2013).
Unavoidably, human-wildlife conflicts have become more common. As it has been
stated, animals do cause extensive damage to the individuals and individuals in
turn impose harm to the animals by hunting them. Deforestation is the cutting
down of the trees in the forests, which have caused extinction of wildlife to a large
extent. Hence, it is necessary to implement measures that would not only lead to
preservation of wildlife, but also individuals need to safeguard themselves and all
types of property from getting damaged by animals.

21
Making Wildlife Tourism
Sustainable
• To make the wildlife tourism sustainable, it is essential to make the optimum
use of the environmental resources that organize the main element in
tourism development, maintaining the indispensable ecological processes
and assisting in the conservation of natural heritage and biodiversity.
Reverence and admiration for the socio-cultural authenticity of the host
communities, conserving their built and living cultural heritage and traditional
values, render an imperative contribution to the inter-cultural understanding
and tolerance. It is vital to ensure that viable, long-term economic operations,
providing socio-economic benefits to the stakeholders are equitably
distributed. These include, stable employment and income-earning
opportunities and social services to the host communities, and contributing
towards the alleviation of poverty (Wildlife Watching and Tourism, 2006). In
India, large number of individuals are residing in the conditions of poverty
and backwardness, it is necessary to generate awareness among them that
they should make proper use of resources to alleviate their conditions of
poverty.
• Sustainable tourism development requires the informed and knowledgeable
participation of all the relevant stakeholders, as well as strong political
leadership to ensure widespread participation and consensus building.
Achieving sustainable tourism is a continuous process and it requires
continuous observing of the impacts, introducing the essential preventive
and/or corrective measures, whenever they are needed. Sustainable tourism
should also maintain satisfaction of the tourists to a major extent and ensure
them a meaningful experience. The awareness of the individuals gets
augmented in terms of sustainability issues and promoting sustainable
tourism practices among them (Wildlife Watching and Tourism, 2006). When
the individuals are getting engaged in activities, then it is vital that they
should possess efficient knowledge. Normally, before planning their tourism
activities, the individuals make use of technology or acquire information from
their friends and relatives.

22
• Finally, like all forms of tourism, it is important that wildlife
watching tourism should be sustainable, and should protect the
wildlife, habitats and the communities on which it is dependent.
Sustainable development is defined as the development that meets
the needs and requirements of the present without co-operating
the capability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Sustainable tourism is the tourism that puts the principles of
sustainable development into practice in the management of the
tasks and activities. To be sustainable, tourism needs to make a
positive contribution to the natural, social and cultural
environment, promotes advantages for the host communities, and
not put at risk the future livelihoods of the local people. It is vital
on the part of the individuals to endeavour to anticipate and
prevent economic, environmental, social and cultural deprivation
(Wildlife Watching and Tourism, 2006).

23
 Conclusion
• Wildlife tourism is regarded as the tourism that involves primarily
observation of wildlife. The different forms of wildlife tourism
involves, wildlife watching tourism, captive wildlife tourism, hunting
tourism, fishing tourism, consumptive wildlife tourism, wildlife
dependent wildlife tourism, wildlife independent wildlife tourism,
environment, where the interaction occurs, principle type of
encounter and wildlife farm production activities. There are certain
important areas that need to be taken into consideration for the
planning and management of wildlife tourism, these are, safety and
preventive measures, preservation of forests, preventing pollution,
generation of awareness, care of elderly family members and
children, and management of other areas. Wildlife activities render
a significant contribution within the tourism industry and they have
proved to be beneficial to the individuals, nationals, internationals,
communities and nation as a whole.
• Wildlife tourism has been prevalent in India, primarily among the
rural and the tribal communities. On the other hand, the
individuals, who are residing in urban areas, usually explore wildlife
tourism, if they go on a holiday to hilly regions or national parks.
When individuals get engaged in wildlife tourism, there are certain
causes, these are leisure, recreation, education, research study or
simply they develop an interest to observe various forms of wildlife.
It is vital for the individuals to take into consideration various
preventive measures, so that they are able to ensure their
protection. Wildlife tourism is based upon the encounters with the
non-domesticated animals and one has to ensure that animals are
not harmed or get disturbed in any manner.
