description: Can a populous country like India 'afford' to protect wildlife? Is there space for wildlife in a land-scarce, densely populated country, and can wild animals and people coexist, or is the relationship inevitably confrontational?

The Vanishing explores such burning issues that confront wildlife conservation today.
