Hatched in captivity, now in the wild: 10 white-rumped vultures were released from our facility in Buxa TR, West Bengal, yesterday. We hope these birds will join the wake of 10 captive bred vultures released in 2021 and establish in the wild.

Pollution is the largest environmental risk factor for disease & premature death.

A new study published shocking data: is responsible for approximately nine million deaths per year, & 90% of deaths occur in low & middle-income countries. thelancet.com/journals/lanpl…

We report a rapid decline of another local population of the Spoon-billed Sandpiper based on a 9-year series of annual surveys in Bangladesh. Using two different methods, we observed decline at a mean rate of 9.5% per year, followed by a much more rapid decline at 49.1% per year.

Our new paper looks at 28 anthropogenic and ecological layers at the Bay of Bengal to characterise the distribution of human activities. We identify that shipping and artisanal fishing have the highest sea-space demands, especially in the MPAs. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
