Cheetahs, finally, to inhabitate the Kuno Palpur sanctuary in MP

Wild Cheetahs finally will be living in Kuno Palpur Sanctuary in India’s Madhya Pradesh. All those who matter in India have finally agreed to the plan.

Wild cheetah’s eight specimen (5 males and 3 females) are expected to land there by forthcoming Deepawali festival in November 2021. MP forest officials are cock-a-hoop.

Vincent Van Der Merme from Endangered Wildlife Trust in South Africa consented for Kuno to be the most ideal habitat. The Trust is poised to give the predators as a “free gift” to India. It was Chhattisgarh, then part of Madhya Pradesh, where the last Cheetah was spotted in late 40s. The species was declared “extinct” in India mid 50s.

All efforts to allow cheetahs relive in India’s wild

Dr. Ranjtsinhji, prince of Wankaner and an incredible wildlife expert, has been running an endless campaign to let Cheetahs relive in India’s wild. From government offices to Supreme Court, he knocked at each door to let decision makers listen to his reason. Some persons tried to oppose the move but smelt dust. Supreme Court authorized him last year to go ahead. Wildlife Institute of India’s Dean, Yadvendra Y. Jhala is the key scientist who led the team to assess various habitats to select one.

The extinct species in India ought to be introduced!

The plea was simple: an extinct species in India ought to be introduced! About 750 sq. km area of Kuno was at one time teeming with Tigers which became extinct a few decades ago. Leopards roam as lone predators ever since. It was cited as ideal forest to introduce Gir Lions. The Supreme Court supported the plea. However, Gujarat’s politico-administrative adamancy did not permit Lions. Ranthambhore Tigers often frequent Kuno, the extra population making its way out.

New guest to be accommodated warm welcome

Rs 14-crore are being disbursed by Ministry of Environment & Forest to MP Forest Department and Wildlife Institute of India to ready the habitat. It is to be barbed-wire-fenced to not let the new guest predator ram into village livestock and cause alarms at the very start. It is the fastest runner mammal on earth. Tourism practioners in Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve in Rajasthan, about 140 km from Kuno, have started calculating how to encash Kuno’s Cheetah through jeep safaris. In between flows the Chambal river offering Marsh crocodile, Gavial, Tortoise, Gangetic Dolphin, birds, etc., with the rare Indian Skimmer breeding on its islands.

Will Ranthambhore-Chambal-Kuno belt become a new wilderness hotspot?

The Ranthambhore-Chambal-Kuno belt has reasons to become a wilderness hot-spot. Who will bell the cat: to script a positive tourism centric conservation idiom. Ranthambhore’s tourism revenue is estimated to be Rs 110-crore annually. Nearly 90% of it is pocketed by hoteliers. The authorities are advised to invite a meaningful conservationist like Bittu Sahgal, founder editor of Sanctuary Asia magazine, to pilot such a project. His initiatives, especially “Mud on Boots” are globally recognized achievements to support stake-holders.

Goa Liberation Day: When Goa was freed by India after 451 years of Portugal rule

Goa Liberation Day:  The Goa Liberation Day is observed on December 19 every year to commemorate the day when the Indian armed forces freed Goa from Portuguese rule on December 19, 1961 after 451 years.

On this day, Portuguese rule in the region officially came to an end after 451 years and the territory was taken back by India on December 19, 1961.

The Portuguese had colonised many parts of India in 1510 but by the end of the 19th-century, these colonies in India remained limited to a few places including Goa, Daman, Diu, Dadra, Nagar Haveli and Anjediva Island.

The Goa liberation movement, which sought to end Portuguese colonial rule in Goa, started off with small scale revolts.

Surprisingly, on August 15, 1947, when India gained its Independence, Goa was still under the Portuguese rule.

As the Portuguese refused to give up their hold over Goa and other Indian territories, the former prime minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru, decided that military intervention was the only option as a myriad of negotiations and diplomatic efforts with the Portuguese had proven unsuccessful.

The 36-hour military operation was conducted from December 18, 1961 which was code-named as ‘Operation Vijay’ which means ‘Operation Victory,’ . It involved attacks by the Indian Navy, Indian Air Force and Indian Army which led to the release of Goa from clutches of Portuguese.

US nails China on Wuhan lab, the ‘origin place’ of Covid-19 virus

As the world is trying hard to emerge unscathed from COVID-19 pandemic, the US has displayed its hard-line approach last week of May 2021 ordering probe over cause of this virus: from animal to man source or having born in a laboratory.  

“I have now asked the intelligence community to redouble their efforts to collect and analyse information that could bring us closer to a definitive conclusion, and to report back to me in 90 days,” Biden said in a statement, adding he had asked that specific questions for China be drawn up with input from US national labs. This, he remarked, while boarding Marine One in Washington.

“The United States will also keep working with like-minded partners around the world to press China to participate in a full, transparent, evidence-based international investigation and to provide access to all relevant data and evidence,” Mr. Biden said. 

A World Health Organisation (WHO) investigation concluded, earlier this year, that the lab leak theory was “extremely unlikely”. The US Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra told a WHO ministerial meeting earlier this week that experts should be given the independence to fully assess the origins of the virus.  

“The US government has reasons to believe that several researchers inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) became sick in autumn 2019,” a State Department fact sheet  said. The Wall Street Journal reported that three WIV scientists were sick enough in November 2019 to need hospital care. 

“Now everybody is agreeing that I was right when I very early on called Wuhan as the source of COVID-19,” Mr. Trump said in a statement released in May. Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, the US Senate unanimously approved two Wuhan-related amendments, the Washington Post reported. One amendment would block U.S. funding for virus ‘gain of function’ research and the other would prevent US funding for the Wuhan Virology Institute.  

To this China has retorted: The US  is “turning a blind eye on the facts.” China cited again the World Health Organization (WHO) study that laboratory origin of virus was “extremely  unlikely.” 

Looks like China is keeping its case buried under WHO’s statement and shying away from what the US has assessed.  Global analysts  summarise: Trump cited it aggressively and now Biden has given a go-ahead to its spies and other experts to crack the mystery.

How to make Flaxseed Gel at Home for Hair Growth

Flaxseeds are rich in a number of nutrients that may help in keeping the hair healthy and the scalp hydrated. What’s more? Flaxseed hair mask is easy to make and gives you results comparable to a hair spa treatment in salons, given that you generally take care of your hair and follow diet and beauty regimen that is healthy for your hair type. This is why flaxseeds are found in a number of hair creams that you can buy from stores as well. These  seeds are nutty in taste and if you are planning on eating the seeds, you would need to remove the outer shell. For those looking to support their routine from the inside out, there are also oral hair growth products online that complement topical treatments like flaxseed gel.

Ingredients

2 cups of water

3 to 4 tablespoons of flaxseeds

Vitamin E oil (2 to 3 drops) (optional)

Essential oils or coconut oil (optional)

Directions

Put the water and the flaxseeds in a small pot and bring them to a slow boil. To prevent the seeds from sticking to the bottom of the pot, make sure to stir the mixture regularly.

After boiling it for 10 minutes, check the consistency. You’ll notice the mixture beginning to thicken into a soft, gel-like substance. You may also notice some foam forming at the top of gel  (this is normal). Make sure that the mixture is not too watery or thin.

Turn off the heat and let it cool for about half an hour. The longer you let it sit, the thicker the consistency will be.

Once it’s cool enough and you have the desired consistency, grab your jar and prepare your strainer. If you find that the mixture is too thick to filter, gradually add water and mix it in until it’s more manageable.

Filter your mixture through the strainer and into your glass jar or container. You can use your hands to squeeze the gel out and separate it from the seeds. Keep in mind that you won’t get it all out on the first try—it’ll definitely take multiple attempts.

This step is optional, but after you’ve separated the seeds from the gel, feel free to mix in some drop of coconut oil and vitamin E oil (2 to 3 drops)for extra moisture and benefits.

After thoroughly mixing in your added ingredients, feel free to start using your gel right away. To store, simply cover your container and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 2  weeks.
