Spending all my life in and around the biodiversity-rich Western Ghats, I have always loved animals and felt a deep connection to nature. From an early age, I was fascinated by wildlife and their habitats, which fueled my passion for understanding and conserving them. Forests have always been my source of happiness, and my desire to protect them led me to pursue a career in environmental research and wildlife conservation. As I ventured into the field, my curiosity expanded beyond just observing wildlife—I became deeply interested in studying ecological interactions, habitat dynamics, and the growing challenges of human-wildlife coexistence. This passion has shaped my academic journey, driving me to explore scientific approaches to conservation biology, ecosystem health, and environmental sustainability. With every research endeavor, I aim to contribute to wildlife protection, habitat restoration, and creating a balance between nature and human communities.
