On the occasion of Dr Salim Ali’s 119th birthday, Tara Gandhi, one of Dr. Salim Ali’s students spoke of his life, his work and the inspiration behind her new book, Birds, Wild Animals and Agriculture.
The talk covered human animal conflicts with emphasis on conflict with wild animals and resolutions in the context of agriculture.
Crop management and sensitising people to the plight of animals with shrinking habitats using community level projects was a key element of the work in mitigating conflict.
