BRINGING BACK MANAS
Conserving the forest and wildlife of the Bodoland Territorial Council
 Over the last few years, the Wildlife Trust of India (WTI) and the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) has been assisting the Assam Forest Department and the Bodoland Territorial Council in bringing back Manas to its former glory. This includes strengthening its anti-poaching apparatus, bringing back key flagships such as the rhino and the elephant in pioneering rehabilitation projects and building capacity through technical workshops. In a parallel project supported by the British High Commission, WTI and IFAW have assisted the Bodoland Territorial Council in conceptualising, demarcating and declaring Greater Manas, a doubling of the size of the effective protected area system. This report is a chronicle of the work in these projects over the past five years and also a reference for the Greater Manas ecosystem. View Report (8.46 MB)
