Has Mughal Road Construction Led To The Decline of Markhor In Hirpora?

The Wildlife Trust of India (WTI), in collaboration with the Department of Wildlife Protection in Jammu and Kashmir and support from Astral Foundation, has worked for two decades to conserve the critically endangered Pir Panchal Markhor. The Hirpora Wildlife Sanctuary in Shopian, hosting a viable population of Kashmir Markhor, is a focal point. Conservation efforts involve community engagement, education, and initiatives to reduce reliance on forest resources. The Mughal Road, infrastructure, and climate change pose threats. The Markhor census revealed a significant decline, emphasizing the need for proactive conservation measures and sustainable practices.
