Drones to Enhance Wildlife Protection in North Bengal

Drones to Enhance Wildlife Protection in North Bengal

The forest department in North Bengal is going to use drones to watch over the forests and protect animals.

They have already used drones in Jaldapara National Park and found them very helpful.

The drones helped find and rescue animals like elephants and rhinos, especially during floods.

They also stopped poaching and smuggling.

Now, they will use more drones in other forests to keep the animals safe and watch for bad activities.

The drones can see big areas quickly and help the foresters take action fast.

They will still use traditional methods like walking and riding elephants to patrol the forests.
