As WII marks its Foundation Day, we pause to honour the journey of an institution built on science, service and commitment to India’s wildlife. A profound interaction with former Directors enriched the occasion, as their wisdom, memory and vision reminded us that institutions grow through continuity, conviction, equal opportunity and collective purpose. @wii_india @moefcc @SACONCoimbatore @GobindsagarBha1 @RuchiBadola2 @gopigv @ruchibadola2 @paragnigam09 @AnukulNath4 @jajohny2013 @nehrutp @sureshwii @amarjeet_kaur10 @sutirthadutta82 @varun_kher @saini_tapendra @cramesh_WII @wildwithwolves @skg4wii @V_kolipakam @ModiShrushti @muliya_sanath @ashishdurg @RiteshGautamWII @kramesh95 @Himalayanwolf1 @lifeofawild @lalanikawlni @thegrassyfish @amitwii
