Life in the Jungle: Memoris of a forester - Coffee Table Book
M.N. Jayakumar's dream to share his experience of almost four decades in the jungles of India through true stories and photographs has taken shape in the form of this coffee table book.
Life in the Jungle contains around 240 pages adorned with around 250 sublime quality images in color encompassing more than 100 species of animals, birds, and reptiles photographed in more than 25 National parks and wildlife sanctuaries spread across fi regions of India and Yala of Sri Lanka.
Life in the Jungle is also peppered with many anecdotes in the wild which aim at transporting the reader to a completely different world, instigating a vicarious excitement that one can experience in the jungles of the Indian Subcontinent.
Rare images of behavioral traits of animals and birds – sibling rivalry, stalking, hunting, feeding, breeding, courtship, etc. Some of the images have been published in reputed international magazines and newspapers abroad like BBC, The Daily Telegraph, The Sun, Sanctuary Magazine etc.
A true wildlife photographer is one who is the eyes and ears of a million people who do not get the opportunity to experience the adrenaline of wildlife. Hence this endeavor has a two-fold vision – One to introduce the reader to the fascinating world of the wildlife of this amazing country and Two – to inculcate the spirit of conservation in one and all by imparting knowledge through Life in the Jungle.
