The Kaziranga Wildlife Society (KWS) has opposed the recent approval granted to Oil India Limited (OIL) for hydrocarbon exploration in the Upper Dehing Reserve in Assam's Tinsukia district, calling for biodiversity-rich landscapes to be kept free from mining and drilling activities. #OilIndiaLimited #DehingPatkai #assam #conservationists nenow.in/environment/assam-c…

Nilgiri Tahrs are showing signs of return in Coimbatore Forest Division, with estimates rising from zero in 2024 to 26 in 2026, suggesting possible recolonisation or better survey coverage. ✍️ @wilson_thomas trib.al/HWjoOsY

Failed Plantations & Fake Promises: A CAG report found that barely 33% of plantations in #Uttarakhand survived, exposing the myth that compensatory afforestation can replace mature forests lost to development projects. At a time when Uttarakhand has already witnessed extensive deforestation & loss of its green cover, the proposed felling of 700 more trees for the Dehradun–Kimadi–Mussoorie road expansion demands public scrutiny. Before another 700 trees are sacrificed, citizens have every right to know that if two-thirds of replacement plantations fail, who will replace the forests & green cover we are losing forever?

A mutilated carcass of a Royal Bengal Tiger, allegedly killed by poachers, was recovered from a sandbar along Gabharu River in #Assam's Sonitpur district on Thursday, forest officials said. #TheAssamTribune @assamforest assamtribune.com/assam/mutil…

Inspite of scorching unbearable heat, non stop Tree felling happening in the Central Ridge (opp Buddha Jayanti Park, Gate 2). Inspite of police and green helpline complaints, complete forest is being decimated. Please don’t hesitate to stop by and complain.

In a state where forest lands are distributed for votes.. where so called Tiger saving NGOs partner with the State to write off forest lands, where ground staff have no support.. and culprits who break Officials heads with sticks on videos are rewarded with posts and tickets.. how does a wandering tiger survive? The day it entered #Telangana its future was doomed. @BaluPulipaka @uday32008293

Delhi Ridge: Yes Vilayati kikar needs to be removed but through a slow manual process, letting JCBs inside the ridge will destroy the delicate biocrust of the soil formed over years. Look how @I_Am_Gurgaon did it in Aravali Biodiversity Park. #delhiridge @gupta_rekha

(Post-3 our tiger series problems) We will cover Sariska Tiger Reserve as the next tiger reserve in our series today. This park is the last tiger habitat in the Aravali Mountain range. It is an isolated forest with an average tiger density. The park faces numerous problems, primarily due to its unique geographic location. From a mountain range perspective, this park is even more beautiful and densely forested than Ranthambore. However, the surrounding plains are equally disturbed and fragmented. The main problems of this park, which the administration must address in a phased manner, are as follows: 1. (Unique Problem) There are two major religious sites inside the park: the first is the Pandupol Hanuman Ji Temple, and the second is the Bhairav (Bhrathri) Temple of the Gorakhnath sect. Especially at the Bhairav Temple, thousands of devotees from the sect visit daily for darshan and leave behind polythene bags and other garbage in the forest. Shockingly, both these sites are located in the heart of the park’s core jungle. Sambhar deer, Hanuman langurs, and other wildlife are consuming thousands of kilograms of this plastic waste and sugar-rich products, falling victim to various diseases. 2. A state highway passes through the middle of this jungle, serving as the only shortcut connecting the state capital to Alwar. Heavy vehicles continue to ply on it until 6 PM. 3. The most common issue is illegal mining, but the most critical problem here is the mining lobby’s deep influence in the government. Under pressure from this lobby, the government is intent on denotifying important parts of the tiger reserve (where tigers currently reside) to convert them into revenue land. The local MP and the Union Environment Minister have remained mute spectators, or their silence may even amount to tacit support for this unreasonable move. 4. Inbreeding among tigers here has reached its peak. Most tigers belong to the T-16 Machli family lineage, which could negatively impact the future breeding capacity of these fast-breeding carnivores. 5. In the plains, domestic livestock have severely degraded the grasslands, which has deeply affected the breeding capacity of wild herbivores. 6. In terms of human interference, this park is a textbook example of a tiger reserve with perhaps the highest level of human intervention. 7. The delay in notifying Jamwa Ramgarh and Viratnagar Sanctuaries as part of the tiger reserve’s core area is also a matter of serious concern. Even now, 1-2 male tigers continue to live in these forests. 8. Despite villagers causing damage to administrative staff and personnel, the silence of the authorities will once again create a crisis for the survival of tigers in the future. Some parts of this area also connect to the Mewat region, which is a highly sensitive zone for wildlife survival. It is a matter of great surprise that both the Union Environment Minister and the State Environment Minister belong to Alwar. If they cannot secure their own home, then expecting them to protect another home would be our naivety. #bigcatprotection #sariskatigerreserve #tigerisland #ranthambhoretigerreserve #rajasthanforest #wildlifeawareness Yuvraj tiger ST-21 at Sariska
