| Abstract: |
Fish stupefying
plants and their methods of use by the Gond
people of Mendha village of the Gadchiroli district in Maharashtra
state have been documented. For the purpose of validation, literature survey
revels that many fish stupefying plants being used since long time by local
people are recently well tested by many workers and are found to have many important
medicinal properties. It was also observed that herbal fish stupefying agents
are excellent means of fishing, which do not kill whole fish stock like
chemicals.
