Know about Schedules in The Wildlife Protection Act (WPA) of 1972
The Wildlife Protection Act (WPA) of 1972 is divided into six schedule lists that provide varying degrees of protection. Poaching, smuggling, and illegal trade in animals listed in Schedules 1–4 are all prohibited. Animals included in the Schedule are completely protected from hunting, and trade and commerce involving such animals is strictly regulated. The WPA, 1972 governs wildlife conservation and protection in India. India is the first country in the world to include measures for environmental preservation and conservation in its constitution. The British Indian Government passed first such law, the Wild Birds Protection Act, 1887.

What are Vermins?
· Vermin means wild mammals and birds which are harmful to crops, farm animals or which carry disease. · In India, wild animals can be declared as vermin if they have become (i) dangerous to human life or property (including standing crops on any land). (ii) become disabled or diseased as to be beyond recovery. · The Central Government through notification may declare any wild animal other than those specified in Schedule I and part 11 of Schedule H of the law to be vermin for any area for a given period of time. · The hunted wildlife is declared as government property and it imposes restrictions on how these carcasses must be disposed of. · Currently, some animals like the common crow, fruit bats, mice and rats have been listed as vermin in Schedule V of WPA. · The Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) has declared Wild Pig as vermin in Uttarakhand and the Monkey as Vermin in Himachal Pradesh for the period of one year for a year. |
