Deeply saddened by the loss of forest frontline staffer Vijay Shinganjude.
He lost his life while battling a forest fire in Yavatmal to protect our forests and wildlife -a reminder of the risks forest personnel take every day in the line of duty.
His courage, dedication and sacrifice will not be forgotten. Respect and heartfelt tributes to a true guardian of our forests 🙏🏽

The astonishing biodiversity of Mumbai teems with an abundance of species! In a city fast falling prey to environmental destruction, their conservation, is our duty!
A rare sighting of a Brown Hawk Owl surprised residents of a society in Gokuldham, Goregaon East, near Aarey Milk Colony. Wildlife lover and naturalist Mahesh Yadav, who has been documenting bird biodiversity in the area, confirmed the sighting after responding to residents who heard an unfamiliar bird call at night. This unusual sighting highlights the rich biodiversity of Aarey Forest and Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP), emphasizing the need for their conservation.
