THE VANARMARE: HUNTERS PAR EXCELLENCE

My love for the wild finds its origin in Amboli village where I not only got to see and experience wild animals up-close but various communities especially the Dhangars and the Vanarmare. While my thoughts on that one special Dhangar, whom I and my sibling grew to love, will be penned later, for the present read my article on the Vanarmare tribes. Pity that I did not carry a camera then.

The article was written on January 28, 2011 and the questions asked at the end, have come true. My colleague Dr. Sachin Tendulkar is trying his best to help a tribe back here in Goa. Check this link and support in any way you can. https://www.facebook.com/tendulkar1/media_set?set=a.10202896953010778.1073741830.1411128011&type=1
