Birds

In 2017, Ganesan D from Chennai founded the Koodugal Trust, wherein he distributes handmade boxes to highlight the importance of creating nesting spaces for sparrows, whose population has been decreasing due to rapid urbanisation.

A village in Tamilnadu’s Sivaganga district has kept its street lights off for the last 40 days to help an Indian Robin lay her eggs and nest in peace.

Besides working relentlessly to save house sparrows in eleven districts of Odisha, Rabindra Sahu is also working for the conservation of Olive Ridley turtles since 1993

Earning a living as an electrician and camera repair person, Sekar’s has now begun attracting tourists from around the world!

When was the last time you spotted a sparrow? Hard to remember, isn’t it? Good news is you can too help in conserving the endangered bird!

Remarkably, her conservation efforts are driven by more than 200 local women, whom she calls the 'Hargila Army'.

Besides building a natural habitat for sparrows, Inderpal and his family have also been working towards environment conservation and protection. They have planted around 800 trees in their colonies, and on the outskirts of the city.

About 2,023 volunteers associated with various NGOs have signed up with the programme, and they have collectively managed to save as many as 4,506 injured birds in the past two days.

Fallen from the sky, 'Booboo' was injured, completely dehydrated and had no chance of survival. What happened next is a touching story that will make your day!

Termed as a ‘walk with feathered birds’, the 300-metre long walk allows you to get a closer glimpse at the lives of 32 indigenous and exotic birds.
