A keen observer of nature, it was only through everyday experiences that he acquired the necessary skills for tracking, and eventually hunting. Growing up embedded in his local surroundings, he developed early-on, an acute curiosity for the environment. But he left us with much to muse about.Įdward James Corbett, remembered, and celebrated for his writings that chronicled fantastic tales of “man-eating” tigers and leopards in the region of Kumaon, was born 25th July, 1875, in Nainital. Corbett was as much a conservationist in his later years, as he was an avid hunter in his salad days. But his legacy is a slightly muddled one, says Harshad Sambamurthy.
