Kashmir wetlands host 13 lakh migratory birds, wildlife care lacking
Original: Kashmir’s wetlands draw 13 lakh birds, but who treats injured wildlife?
Kashmir's wetlands have recorded around 13 lakh migratory birds this season, underlining the region's importance as a wintering site along the Central Asian flyway. However, conservationists point to a gap: while bird numbers are strong, there is little infrastructure or expertise for treating injured wildlife. The report highlights the need for rescue and rehabilitation facilities as bird populations grow.
Why now: A wildlife census showing record bird numbers has drawn attention to the absence of veterinary care for injured wild animals in the region
