This study has identified new prey species of the major mammalian predators in Periyar Tiger Reserve; Nilgiri Langur, Elephant and Varanus for Tiger and Flying Squirrel for Leopard. The proportion of different prey species taken by these predators is also interesting.
The detailed list of Raptors with their habitats, abundance, migratory status and management strategies in Periyar Tiger Reserve are discussed in this paper.
