Prime Intention of the Blog

"People without children would face a hopeless future; a country without trees and wildlife is almost as helpless".

I still remember my childhood days when I used to visit Dandeli a place where even my father started his professional career and also where my most of the relatives were staying.Even though I never brought up in Dandeli no one could stop me to go there since it was just two hours journey from my native. And during every visit I used to get the scoldings from my father and relatives since I used to spend most of the time in forests than in house.So as I grown up my visit to Dandeli became very less except twice or thrice in a year since I became busy with studies but always I had in my mind that I should contribute something to these magnificent forests which inspired me a lot to fall in love with the Conservation.So it is just an attempt from my side to create awareness to save these magnificent animals and landscapes they exist in.If this blog contributes in a small way to achieve this goal I will be the most happiest person in this world.
This blog mainly focuses towards conservation activities in and around Dandeli-Anshi Tiger Reserve.This blog doesn't provide any information regarding tourism and its related activities in and around Dandeli-Anshi Tiger Reserve.

Wild Animals turn towards human habitations

It is a known fact that in recent years India have lost most of its Tigers and their habitats.But even the protected areas which forms just 3% of the total geographical area of our country are also facing lots of disturbances from human activities and as a result now wild animals more oftently visiting nearby human habitations since encroachment,habitat loss and food-water scarcity became a big problem for herbivores like spotted deer,sambar etc.
And even our Dandeli-Anshi Tiger Reserve is also not exceptional from this.Adding to this recently in a span of 5 days three spotted deers strayed into Human habitats in Joyda and Kumbarwada but forest staff along with help of local people could able to send them back into the forests safely.
