Hi, I am Chandrima Debi. I am a Doctorate in Forestry and an independent researcher. Ever since childhood, I experienced deep-rooted connection with nature, forest and wildlife. I always had a feeling that the forests are integral part of my life. I recall, while traveling to my grandparent’s place during summer vacations, the train traversed through dense forests, vast agricultural fields, over the rivers, through the tunnels, into the valleys. Curious by nature, I used to imagine what lied beyond these forests. Is there a tiger lurking through the woods or herd of elephants silently waiting to cross the railway tracks, animals in the fields surpassing me. I used to become wonderstruck and imagined who would have created these picturesque landscape and life with utmost pristine love and perfection. And I decided that when I grow up, I will dedicate my life for the nature, wildlife and forests.
