Wildlife Research and Conservation Society

Pradyut has a Master’s degree in Evolutionary Biology through the Erasmus Mundus programme and has received his degree from the University of Groningen, Netherlands and the University of Montpellier, France. He is a general wildlife aficionado but has a keen interest in avian behavioural ecology, speciation and sexual selection in mating systems. He has worked with the Forest Departments in Arunachal Pradesh and Chhattisgarh on various avian monitoring and conservation projects. He relishes the opportunity to immerse himself into the wild as much as he enjoys scouring through data to reveal exciting insights into the past, present and future lives of our feathered friends. He firmly believes in establishing systematic, long term monitoring projects in tandem with empowering local tribal communities as the way towards achieving a sustainable conservation landscape for the future. He is as avid a squash player as he is a birder and enjoys clicking photographs of all things wild.
