The advent of ice age in these regions must have forced many wild animals to migrate southwards. Some of them reached India. Migration of fauna to India also took place from the eastern lands, which are now separated from the Bay of Bengal and also from the west. Thus the wild animals of India comprise the originally indigenous species as well as the species which migrated from elsewhere. It is really the admixture of Indian, Malayan, African and European elements. The respective species inhabited the areas adjacent to their original home lands. One can get more information about animals from the different animals adventure channels, wild animals videos or popular channels like national geographic adventure channel.
Wildlife includes all non domesticated plants, animals, and other organisms. Domesticating wild plant and animal species for human benefit has occurred many times all over the planet, and has a major impact on the environment, both positive and negative. Wild animals can be found in all ecosystems. Deserts, rain forests, plains, and other areas including the most developed urban sites all have distinct forms of wildlife. While the term in popular culture usually refers to wild animals that are untouched by human factors, most scientists agree that wild animals around the world are impacted by human activities.
Different wild animals are considered sacred in different places because in some cultures have different gods. Gods are usually the reason wild animals are worshiped or considered sacred. Examples are peacocks and cows were sacred in Greek Mythology because peacocks and cows were considered sacred to the goddess Hera.

The Indian subcontinent has varied physical and climatic conditions and types of vegetation, stretching from the northern temperate Zone to the equator and embracing contrasting regions as the Himalayas in the north encourages a wide variety of wild animals species. The affinity of fauna of the Siwalik beds and that of present day Africa and India suggest that they were derived from common wild animals species which migrated from Europe and Central Asia which enjoyed warm climate at that time.
