BARIPADA: Armed poachers launched an audacious attack on forest staff leaving five of them injured in Dengam section of Baripada forest division’s Udala range on Tuesday night. The hunters were not finished as they tied the staff, assaulted them and decamped with their mobile phones. They also vandalised the forest officials’ vehicle.
A forest protection squad, led by range officer Arun Behera, raided Jamudihi village and seized 40 kg elk meat and two country-made guns from a poacher’s house. The team was returning to Udala range office with the seized items when a group of around 20 poachers forced stop their vehicle by blocking the road with a large wooden log. They vandalised the vehicle and snatched around 30 kg seized elk meat and a gun from the squad.
NOIDA: With the water body in Dhanauri shrinking,the district forest department on Friday wrote to the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development (YEIDA) stating that a local canal that flows into it be deepened in an effort to revive the wetland.
The rain-fed water body in the core of Dhanauri wetland, a prominent Sarus habitat, is surrounded by fields and farmland that get water from the canal. Although both the forest department and the development authority agree that the wetland needs to be protected, when it comes to taking responsibility for it, both seem to be pointing fingers at each other. The wetland is under a direct threat from numerous infrastructure developments taking place in the vicinity – a concrete road under construction that will connect upcoming residential sectors of YEIDA with Greater Noida and the Jewar International Airport – which is about a half hour drive from Dhanauri.
