MEGHDUT AWARENESS CAMPAIGN: Meghdut Platform’s Collectibles Contest is a way of spreading awareness about the endangered species in India. Apart from the reward, the Collectible Contest aims to spread awareness for the urgent need to protect the endangered species…. As otherwise, just like the ten little monkeys…A DAY WILL COME WHEN THERE ARE NONE!

Rapid human population growth and urbanisation have led to massive deforestation and habitat loss, pushing wildlife to the brink of extinction. A 2020 analysis by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List highlighted the alarming situation with over 500 species of land animals facing imminent extinction within the next two decades.

To combat the threat of extinction facing numerous species, it is imperative to raise awareness, support conservation initiatives, and advocate for policies that prioritise the protection of vulnerable wildlife.

We feature here the top 12 endangered species in India that are facing the threat of extinction and urgently need protection.
