Hornbill Regional Meet 2024, Devrukh 23rd March
Western ghats are the habitats of four species of Hornbills. Hornbill is known as a ‘Farmer of the Forest’ by disbursing seeds in the nature. But rampant deforestation and human interference is destroying the habitat of Hornbills. Consequently, the survival of the forests is also threatened. So, Hornbill Meet was organised in Devrukh with the organisations and individuals who are working for the conservation of Hornbills. There was an in-depth discussion on the threats to the bird and effective measures to protect the Hornbills. Around hundred people from different parts of Ratnagiri, Kolhapur, Solapur, Sangli, Satara and Mumbai attended this meeting.
