    Poaching is a cruel, inhumane activity. The rich biodiversity and varied wildlife, which we had earlier, is now decreasing rapidly from the face of Earth only because of the selfish nature of some humans. Thanks to some kind-hearted Samaritan people of Tamilnadu that endangered species like Slender Loris are thriving. Eco-india and Scroll.in, you are doing a commendable job by bringing such amazing stories to the limelight and giving them recognition :)

      @@aaryansetia9093 I didn't call anyone names. From when did godman become a derogatory term? What else should we call him then? He runs an ashram, teaches yoga, has some commercial interests, runs several institutions and is also a politically influential person. All of this based on religion, which again is nothing wrong. So I mentioned godman 🤷‍♂️
