So what are the things that you do as a researcher that eventually help bring that species back to life?

so one is that it is never an individual thing it's always collaborations there is a lot of people who work for it there are different ways where people do in different ways i my team always works with the community so we will actually always meet people first you know whichever forest we go we'll meet the nearest community and which is one aspect of uh we going then doing field work before this there's a lot of homework that has happened if i'm going to a particular area i will look up old records whether they are old British records, whether they are old records with the forest department.

It's also always need-based stuff also.

Areas which maybe are going to face some sort of development action or someplace which needs conservation value will go into areas like that.

And then after that, you try and work with the community and walk with them.

A lot of times it is most of our work is not trying to go and discover something or find something.

It's basically of understanding the forest.

Yeah,
