Nature and Wildlife Association (NWA) recently joined a joint field inspection led by the Kurseong Forest Division, working together with officials from the Police Department, WBSEDCL, other NGOs, and forest staff to identify and address issues that could pose serious threats to wildlife.

The team visited areas across known wildlife movement corridors to spot sagging power lines, illegal connections, and other electrical hazards that could lead to accidental electrocution of animals, especially elephants.

This joint effort is part of a larger mission to ensure that wild animals can move safely through their natural routes without facing life-threatening risks from human-made infrastructure.

NWA is proud to be part of this important work and continues to support initiatives that protect both wildlife and the communities living alongside them.
