And all the five jungle cat cubs were saved. Found by farmers during harvesting in a field.
All were so small that they could not have been survive without mother.

So we decided to reunite them with mother.

The area was cordoned off. Where they were found villagers decided to stop harvesting for the time being.
Camera traps were established in the area carefully.

Teams and villagers stationed for the night near the location. So that they can be monitored and no disturbance occur.
In night mother came and took all the cubs to Forest. She started this process in evening and by middle of the night shifted all her cubs to the forest. Without any disturbance. Today.
*survived.
People were convinced not to do harvesting for that patch. For the time being. All agreed and supported very well. By 2 PM all things were at place. So undisturbed place was provided for remaining day and whole night.
Mother did some overtime but shifted all the cubs to Forest within few hours.

‘Jungle Cat’ (Felis chaus) is a protected species.
Our rescue work was featured in all national news portals today. Good to see the positive effect. After this a prominent NGO asked me to give details of kids of village, they want to give them gifts. Which we will do. This is how balance works.

And in some international news portals also. Including French.

In 1930, anticipating Nobel Prize, CV Raman bought two tickets to Stockholm, other for wife, as early as September, 3 months early.

His conviction was not misplaced; he was decorated with the Nobel Prize for Physics that year for his path-breaking work. #BirthAnniversary
Raman was also the first Non white to get Nobel Prize in science. It took merely Rs. 200 to make this discovery & now millions of rupees. University of Cambridge offered him a Professor’s job. He rejected & later appointed as 1st Non British Director of IISc Bangalore in 1933.
During WW2 tried best to bring some scientists to work in #IISc, including Niel Bohr, Heisenberg, Pauli. Max Born spend some time here.

CV Raman studied Science, but got selected in Indian Financial Service. Was in good position. But later returned back to world of science.

On this day in 1730, 363 Bishnois from Jodhpur were killed in Khejarli, when objected to felling of Khejri trees by the king. Day is celebrated as #ForestMartyrsDay. Scores of ground staff & officers have laid down their lives in protecting the ecological security of country.
When teams came to cut Khejri trees summons were sent to 83 Bishnoi villages.

The cry was “सिर साटे रुख रहे तो भी सस्तो जाण” which means even if head goes to save a tree then also it is worth.

With this 363 Bishnoi’s martyred to save trees led by Amrita Devi Bishnoi. 2/n
To commemorate the day of this 'bishnoi massacre' India observe this day as 'Forest Martyrs Day'.

Look carefully. #Elephants are not crossing the road. Road is crossing the #forest. #WorldElephantDay
Do you know #elephant family is all women group. Made of #mother, #aunts, #grandmother & all other #ladies. Most of the times Male leave herd early. Kids are looked by all female elephants in herd, all are mothers. Grandmother makes all decision for the family.
Males keep on joining & leaving herds. Well one of the accepted theory is. That males when they get young are pushed out from the herd/family by dominant female, also called as matriarch. To check the inbreeding. Which only shows elephants are highly intelligent.

Today is #WorldMangrovesDay. So let me remind you. #Mangroves;

- acts as buffer & reduce impact of cyclones & #storm surge.
- they break the #wind force
- provide #habitat to #animals during cyclone or otherwise
- they reduce #pollution.

We just need to protect them.
So how it works. Mangroves create a maze & dense habitat. With species which are salt tolerant & special adaptations. They act like buffer & consume the winds & energy. So after passing the storms get dampen. You must have read in ‘Theory of Vibration’.
They are prop roots. In #mangrove #ecosystem they are adventitious support roots. They Grow down from lateral branches, in a way support trees, with doing other root functions. Additionally roots buffer against damage to coasts & enhance biodiversity & carbon sequestration.
