I recently came across a very interesting article - one which in my opinion manages to highlight two crucial topics in the current context - gender equality and tiger conservation in India. It talks about the life of a woman who works as part of a governmental agency called the Special Tiger Protection Force (STPF). The STPF teams are mandated to patrol the various tiger reserves and prevent the loss of tigers and / or their habitats at the hands of illegal activities such as poaching or tree-felling. Not only is this article informative, it is also heart-warming and one which rekindles hope for a cause that seemed long lost. The link to this article is given below:-
