Its population has been decreasing from the entire range, including Nepal. Chitwan National Park (CNP) is one of the prime habitats of fishing cats in Nepal. The main objective of this study was to assess the status and threats to the fishing cat and associated small carnivores in CNP. This study reports on systematic camera trap, sign and community based survey results. From a total survey effort of 868 camera trap days across a total area of 160 km2 19 photographs of fishing cats were obtained in six independent events with five individuals identified from three locations. Two different methods i.e. capture recapture analysis on CAPTURE program and spatially explicit capture recapture using SPACECAP software were used for population estimation whereas density was calculated only from the SPACECAP. Capture-recapture analysis estimated seven individuals (95% CI 6 – 23). The analysis from SPACECAP using spatially explicit capture recapture estimated the population of the fishing cat in CNP as 17.74 (95% CI 9 – 25) with a density estimate of 6.06 animals / 100 km2 Sign surveys showed a patchy distribution across potential habitats from Narayani river in the west to Amrite in the northeast and Thori in the southeast. The majority of the detections were in wetlands with surrounding grassland areas of average height 1-2 m indicating the most favorable habitats of fishing cats. A total of 26 species of mammals including nine species of small carnivores (small cats, civets and mongoose) were recorded on the camera traps. Targeted community interview surveys indicate habitat loss due to shrinkage of wetlands as the main threat to the fishing cat.Item Cost Effectiveness Analysis of Electric and Diesel Pump Set(Department of Economics, 2013-12) Subedi, AtindraNot availableItem Apocalyptic Vision in James Cameron’s The Terminator 2: The Judgement Day(Ratna Rajya Laxmi Campus, Kathmandu., 2013-12) Chabegu, Utar KumarThis research has been conducted on James Cameron’s movie The Terminator 2: The Judgement Day which has been explored from the perspective of apocalyptic vision. The Apocalyptic writings in literature especially prevailed from post-Exilic Jewish culture and remained popular among early Christians, puritans and created sensation even in the modern era in 2012. Apocalypse occurs due to different factors. Such as natural disaster, pestilence, extra terrestrial attack, environmental degradation, nuclear war and technological singularity. Here the writer and director Cameron means to say that it is because of humans’ obsessive nature to invent new and advanced scientific technology, we will equip the world only with machines. And these machines will one day in the future be self intelligent, especially skynets. Then they learn that humanity is threat for their existence. Consequently, they form military defense and wage waragainst humans. That day will be called The Judgement Day where most of the humanity will be destroyed. After that apocalypse new civilization will have to be started just like John Connor starts in Terminator2: Judgement Day. In the movie we see Cyber Dine Company inventing advanced technologies, nuclear holocaust, advanced Cyborg Assassins sent by self-intelligent machine, Skynet, to fight against humans. Even in the beginning of the movie we see the nuclear holocaust in the war between humans and machines where John Connor is seen as a future commando leading his military troop. So, Cameron here wants to make sure about the impending apocalypse which occurs in the future and glorious new world with new civilization after destruction. This is what we call Apocalypse.
