18.4.2018 |
General News |
| Twenty-eight goats and sheep were mauled to death by a snow leopard in Himachal Pradesh's Rongya village early today, a forest official said.

The snow leopard entered a shed early this morning and killed 28 goats and sheep belonging to a farmer Sonam, the official said.

Forest Guard Sunil Kumar, who visited the village, said a compensation of Rs 1,500 for each livestock killed would be given to the affected farmer and the case would be sent to the forest department.

The impacts of social forestry on grasslands

| The impacts of social forestry on grasslands
Western Ghats or the Sahyadri hills is a scenic holiday retreat for many. But, there is more to it. Being one of the eight worlds hottest biodiversity hotspots, the natural ecosystem, including forests and grasslands, hosts an incredible number of plant and animal species and plays a significant role in maintaining the Indian monsoon. However, in the recent years, extensive human activities are threatening the survival of these lush green forests, and animal and plant numbers are dwindling. The famous and unique shola grasslands, which once dominated the mountains of the Western Ghats have now become one of the rarest habitats.
So what exactly is happening? To know this, a team of researchers and conservationists have used satellite images to study how, over a 40-year period, from 1973 â€" 2014, the grasslands, forests, plantations and agriculture lands have changed over space and time in Palani Hills, which range from Kerala to Tamil Nadu.
