Blackbuck... Swipe left for female Patten..
– In 2018, courts convicted a Bollywood actor named Salman Khan of poaching a blackbuck back in 1998. This case gained notoriety, and Khan is currently serving a five-year prison sentence for his crime.
– Normally blackbucks live in India, Pakistan, and Nepal. However, these antelope have gained popularity in the state of Texas in the United States. In the state, farmers raise them for both their meat and their milk .
Despite the fact that the IUCN considers blackbucks as Least Concern, some places offer these animals additional protections. Though their populations are stable, in India it is illegal to hunt blackbuck.The reason India instilled these protections is quite clear. Prior to the 20th century, blackbuck populations were plummeting in India. The primary reason for this decline was hunting by royalty and distinguished members of communities. These hunters used specially trained Asiatic cheetas to capture blackbucks.padi
