There's an animist tribe called Idu Mishmis in India's North East state of Arunachal Pradesh, Their mythology considers Tigers to be their elder brothers, So they venerate Tigers and are deeply involved in conserving their habitat leading to an unique way of wildlife conservation. They don't indulge in retaliatory killing of the Tiger even if it hunts one of their people. Subsequent Tiger census of their region have shown to have significant Tiger population that the Govt. now wants to establish a Tiger Reserve in their region, Now the Idu Mishmis are protesting that plan claiming that the Tigers are actually located in their own farm lands and not in deep forest region[1].
