Quail Breeding Raises Hackles - Naresh Kadyan

This refers to a story on white quails and rejoinder by GADVASU.

The university was breeding Japnese Quails(Cuternix Japonica) earlier.Since these are present in wild in Northeast states these are protected Under Wildlife protection act 1972 in Sch IV.

Being Hon.Wildlife Warden and Nominee to IAEC (Institutional Animal Ethics Committee of CPCSEA,Govt of India,I informed about breeding of white quail News to Chief Wildlife warden and CPCSEA,Chennai.I couldnot get any reply from CWW but CPCSEA sent me the following Mail.

As per wildlife P Act a permission u/s 12 is required to carry out any research on Scheduled wild animals.MoreoverCWW has to enquire about the process of breeeding ,Parent stock any sanction by CWW of state.if these are exotic breeds(www.Chinesepaintedquails.uk) or Texas A7 M or cuternix Quaime,then before importing a permission is required from CPCSEA under export rules.

CPCSEA also approve the experiments on animals in research and educational Institutes under Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1960 and Rules thereunder.

It grants recognition to institutes for experimentation and breeding for use in Labs.It appoints its Nominee to IAEC of Institutes.here in case dr.G.S.Bedi(a Vet and president of People for animals Jalandhar ) is IAEC nominee of CPCSEA in GADVASU.His contact No. is 09814258726/01812272000.

before staring any research protocol or experiments on animals a meeting of IAEC is called and projects are approved and informed to CPCSEA Headquarters at Chennai.

In this case it is evident from this Email of expert consultant that the protocol has not been approved by CPCSEA.

It Means the university has deviated from adopting the legal way in this research?

It is also apprehended that partridges ,which are larger than wild quails & have almost same weight,will be trapped and dressed and sent to commercial establishments in Garb of White Quails.This will incease the hunting and many such cases have been reported in past.So this will be a threat to wildlife.The are myths that Tiger Bones or parts are of Medicinal Use will the University produce Black tigers too ?

In wild life Protection Act Sch IV the Word Quail is Mentioned .There is no description that whether it is white or Black or striped Quail.Quail is Quail ,whatever dress it wears.

This is sent for your information and needful.
