For you to say Valmiks book is "laugahable" is the only thing that is "laughable"
Valmiks theories are based off of years and years of first hand expierence, data, eye witness events, and years of studying. He offers up actual proof, data and events to back his theories.

What process is impossible in modern times?
I know you don't mean the foreign introduction of species?
Since numerous species all over the world have been from foreign introduction. Hence the term "invasive species"
This has been accomplished from the largest cats in the world (tigers in ranthambhore and Panna) to the wild packs of wolves introduced in yosemite all the way down to cichlids and snakeheads released in the canals of florida. It is not hard to introduce a foreign species as long as that species has something that it can sustain life, in fact, some foreign species flourish in completetly different places. So if that is what you were implying, that is obviously wrong.


Richardli-Alexander absolutely 100% brought over lions and tons of other invasive species. Persian Rulers are recorded for having foreign hunts of lions who were given to them as gifts from other rulers. It is extremely easy to transport big cats to different places. How do you think ALL the european and american circuses got their big cats? Every circus performing big cat is a descendent of a once wild Tiger or lion. In fact, many trainers speak about the effects of their cats after they just get off the boat. How lots of them get sea sick and are very lathargic for the first couple of days until they acclimate, etc.

Valmik Thapar is not a biologist he studied anthropology and he is a renowned activist, conservationist, and film maker but he is not a biologist and did not study biology in a university Reply
