Lapwing: Nature's silent warning

Dr Satyavan Saurabh
Contd from previous issue
This will not only be the conservation of a bird, but also a safeguard for our own future and survival.
The conclusion is that while science relies on data and machines, birds like the lapwing provide instinctive warnings.
Science may be late in its warning, but the lapwing warns in advance. Our greatest challenge is to listen to this silent communication and act accordingly.
If we ignore this call, not only will the lapwing disappear, but the message it conveys will also be lost from our lives.
