Life in the Jungles of Madagascar – Film

Instagram

The mountains shine like diamonds beneath evening moonbeams and glow like amber under a setting sun. If there is one place on Earth where we could see the power of raw nature and the fragility of life, it must be here in the Himalayas!

Despite the cold and the thin air, a family of five members walk on deadly snow that turned into black ice in the Kashmir valley in the inner Himalayas. As the glaciers melt in the higher Himalayas, waters pour into the crevices and carved tunnels inside the ice.

Climate change is forcing many island nations, including Madagascar in Africa, to witness erratic weather conditions. The island nations have been experiencing large fluctuations in rainfall patterns and increased temperatures in the last few years. This has an adverse impact on the people and their livelihood.

Climate Change is also a threat to the Royal Bengal Tiger. Some estimates show that in a few decades, the rising sea levels could potentially submerge 70 percent of Sunderbans, the largest mangrove forest in the world and critical tiger habitat. Further, tigers also face unrelenting pressures from poaching, retaliatory killings, and habitat loss across their range. They are forced to compete for space with growing human populations.

Islands provide a crucial habitat for sea turtles species to thrive, including offering nesting grounds. The eggs that Turtles lay, in turn, increase nutrients on beaches, which then promote vegetation growth that stabilizes sand dunes and barrier islands. Furthermore, such stabilized sand dunes and barrier islands help protect human settlements in the coastal belts from severe tropical systems. Unfortunately, this cycle is now disturbed due to various unchecked human activity, including global carbon emissions that have resulted in climate change (global warming and sea-level rise), leading to submersion of islands and critical sea-turtle habitats globally, causing a decline in sea turtle populations by at least 95 percent.

Islands are also home to the giants such as Asian elephants. The island nation of Sri Lanka has the highest density of elephants in Asia — where an estimated 7500 elephants roam the island nation's forests. This video of a strong herd of 70 plus Sri Lankan elephants was taken at the Pinnawala Elephant Orphanage, which was established by the Sri Lankan Department of Wildlife Conservation in 1975 for feeding and providing care and sanctuary to orphaned and wounded elephants that were found in the wild.
