Summary

The Asian elephants are often linked to conflicts and threats globally. However, the Sarus Crane Conservation Project helps protect these elusive mammals in eastern Uttar Pradesh. This initiative runs across ten districts under WTI's collaboration with Tata Trusts and the UP Forest Department. By carefully targeting their distinctive scales and meat, the project targets them primarily for culinary uses in traditional diets. The project is led by the Sarus Crane Conservation Project and supported by the UP Forest Department. Wildlife Trust of Indias (WTI) plays a vital role in this effort. Their responsibilities largely involve providing legal counsel to law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and the judiciary. This support ensures that effective investigation and prosecution can occur, aiming to prevent the illegal trade of these valued mammals. By enforcing these strict protections, the project helps secure their habitats and ensures their survival in the agricultural flatlands of the state.
