Happy to have led a workshop on “restoration of invaded areas in India” along with the experts, senior forest managers, and policymakers. Timely discussions on the pressing necessity of policies and research on restoration. @ipbes.net

Tiger recovery in India shows that large predators and people can find ways to coexist—and that what's good for the animals is also good for us. That story and more of the best in @science.org and science in this edition of #ScienceAdviser: www.science.org/content/arti... 🧪

🐅🌍 Tigers & people: A shared future? India’s tiger population has grown by 30% in two decades - thriving in protected areas but also coexisting with ~60 million people. Conflict, poverty, and land-use changes remain key threats. 🔗 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... #SciComm #Conservation 🧪

In just over a decade, India has doubled its tiger population to more than 3,600, accounting for 75% of the world's tigers. These tigers now inhabit an area of 138,200 sq km (53,360 sq miles) - roughly half the size of the UK - alongside some 60 million people. www.bbc.com/news/article...

India has doubled its tiger population in the last decade through a combination of protected areas and measures to promote coexistence with people. A phenomenal achievement for the world's most populated country! #rewilding www.heraldscotland.com/news/nationa...

Happy to share this study! Large-scale monitoring in India shows tiger distribution increased by 30% in the last two decades and they now share space with 60 million people 🐅 Beyond ecological drivers, tiger recovery depends on peace and sustainability. Rekindles hope for a biodiverse Anthropocene

This tigress has reclaimed the ancient fort within Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve and made it her home. Protection, prey, peace, and prosperity have been key factors in the tiger recovery within India, according to a new Science study. Learn more in this week's issue: https://scim.ag/42yn5Ra

Before human-driven degradation, European wildwoods were rich in hazel, oak, and yew—species thriving on disturbances likely caused by large herbivores. 🫎 🐘 🦬 In particular, we found way more hazel and yew before the late-Quaternary megafauna extinctions: doi.org/10.1111/1365...
