Abstract:
Assam is one of the biodiversity hotspots of North East India. The upper Assam is a land of multi- ethnic identity. The people have a historical continuity of resource use practices for various purposes. This age- old wisdom and traditional knowledge are regarded as ethno- zoological knowledge which is being eroded with time due to many natural and anthropological factors. Ethno- zoological knowledge blended with latest technology can help in sustainable development of the biodiversity as well as the environment.
