NAGPUR: Children from buffer villages of Pench Tiger Reserve (Maharashtra) recently attended a nature camp at Sillari in east Pench and learnt lessons on nature and tiger conservation.
The camp was organized by Satpuda Foundation, a central India NGO working for wildlife conservation. Children from two zilla parishad schools in Ghoti and Pathrai villages - on the fringes of Pench - were selected for the camp.
Students were familiarized with flora and fauna of the area. They were taken to nature interpretation centre at Amaltas Complex of Sillari. They performed wildlife conservation oriented activities during the camp. Satpuda Foundation assistant director Anoop Awasthi made a presentation, while field officer Bandu Uikey and assistant education officer Nikhil Sariyam spoke on conservation issues.
Assistant conservation officer Saket Agasti made the students play many nature games, nature quiz and also conducted a module on 'Community action to avoid human-wildlife conflict'. Field officer Dilip Lanjewar and Munindra Tikapache organized a jungle safari for the students.
Speaking as the chief guest, range forest officer of east Pench GP Bobde discussed various wildlife conservation issues. He explained the students how they can become ambassadors of Pench to educate buffer villages on ecological benefits that they draw.
Bobde encouraged students to take positive, small conservation actions at village level which will not only benefit them to shape their bright future but the entire village community. He also distributed them certificates on successfully completion of the nature camp.
From school staff Sanjay Kadu and Priyanka Gajbhiye assisted the Satpuda Foundation in organising the camp. Kadu said such camps give exposure to children as they learn faster when they experience things.
The two-day camp gave children an in-depth knowledge about various aspects of Pench. The nature camps were started by Satpuda Foundation president Kishor Rithe. He believes that such programmes will prepare future generation to save wildlife and forests.
