World Elephant Day celebrated at Nagaon

These areas are close to the Kaziranga-Karbi Anglong Elephant Reserve where traditional wildlife corridors have been converted into rubber and tea plantations and the elephant habitat has been degraded by rampant, illegal logging.  Several incidents of elephant poaching have been documented in the Karbi foothills by our organization in recent years. Involvement of these fringe forest communities in HEC mitigation efforts have reduced retaliatory action against elephants to a minimum and is also expected to improve the anti-poaching information network. Distribution of children's clothes is a motivational initiative, specially for the whole-hearted support of these communities to the Green Guard Nature Organization initiated project for plantation of elephant fodder during the last few weeks.
