gharial habitat restoration

Gharial habitat restoration involves protecting and improving the natural environments where gharials, a freshwater crocodile species, live. This includes restoring rivers and wetlands by removing obstructions, preventing pollution, and planting native vegetation to support their prey. Conservation efforts also involve creating protected areas, monitoring gharial populations, and breeding programs to ensure their survival. Restoring these habitats ensures gharials have safe spaces for breeding, feeding, and shelter, helping sustain healthy populations and maintain the ecological balance of river ecosystems.
