Analyses of the field Survey:

The study conducted at various sites of sanctuaries. Though these areas are undertaken by the government but it becomes the shuttle cock between the forest department and tourism department. Inhabitants of these areas are poor and mostly have no source of earning. These people are either milkmen or bound to leave their village for daily bread. They are very familiar with the plants existed there and also feel easy to deal with the animals. And these two things are the key of developing Nature tourism.
Conclusion:
The natural heritage of a place provides an ample opportunity to the native people for self employment through developing natural tourism i.e. eco trails, wildlife safari, different adventurous sports, wildlife photography, bid watching etc.
Through government support & little training with community involvement would be helpful in conservation of natural resources. This may also help in creating capacity building at their habitat. The model will be helpful to understand and implement in developing natural tourism in Hadoti
