E Happiness Is…
(Endangered) Happiness is different for everybody, or it is better to say that every person has his own level of happiness. Somebody feels happy, when he buys a new pair of shoes, while the others are happy over having an opportunity to see the shinning sun. Happiness can be defined as a combination of various feelings, which make you feel satisfied with your life, your place in society, your work, and all the aspects, which your everyday life consists of.There is some good news for those, who are sure that their lives are deprived of happiness or its actual level doesn’t correspond to their dreams.
Little did I know how a small act of adopting rare species with the profits garnered with the sales of my areca products is going to embark me on a sense of feeling so satisfied and happy in my life !!!!!
Could you imagine a world without tigers, the turtles, or the birds? What a paler place it would be. Astonishing amounts of animals are considered critically endangered and near extinction. If we would like these animals to be around for future generations, we cannot hesitate in our efforts to help them. Shouldn't more be done to protect and preserve endangered animals?
Being a member of BNHS & ever since my primary years I had a dream to save the endangered species and today here I stand fulfilling it by adopting 3 endangered species. My choice of endangered species points out to the very fact that our animals and birds weather on land, in water or air are not safe.
1) The Great Indian Bustard :
The bird that could have become India's national bird but for that spelling!
The bustard is critically endangered in Pakistan primarily due to lack of protection and rampant hunting. A few birds were detected in a September 2013 survey of the Cholistan Desert in Pakistan.Ecosystems such as forests and the marine environment provide us with food, medicines and important raw materials. They keep the climate stable, oxygenate air and transform pollutants into nutrients. Birds play an important role in the effective functioning of these systems and hence we need to save them.
2) The Bengal Tiger :
Save tiger otherwise you will lose the pride!
Today, due to habitat loss caused by deforestation, and hunting by human poachers, the Bengal tiger is considered to be an endangered species. Despite being the most common of all the tiger species, there are thought to be around 2,000 Bengal tigers left in the wild. The tiger is a unique animal which plays a pivotal role in the health and diversity of an ecosystem. It is a top predator which is at the apex of the food chain and keeps the population of wild ungulates in check, thereby maintaining the balance between prey herbivores and the vegetation upon which they feed.
3) Hawksbill Sea Turtle :
"Slow and steady wins the race"
Named for its narrow head and sharp, bird-like beak, hawksbills can reach into cracks and crevices of coral reefs looking for food.
The hawksbill sea turtle is a critically endangered sea turtle belonging to the family Cheloniidae. Like many sea turtles, hawksbills are a critically endangered species due mostly to human impact.
Hawksbill eggs are still eaten around the world despite the turtle's international protected status, and they are often killed for their flesh and their stunning shells. The greatest threat to hawksbill sea turtle is the harvesting for their prized shell, often referred to as “tortoise shell.” In some countries the shell is still used to make hair ornaments, jewelry, and other decorative items.Listed as Critically Endangered (facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources.
Sea turtles — even at diminished population levels — play an important role in ocean ecosystems. When green sea turtles graze, they increase the productivity and nutrient content of seagrass blades. Hawksbills allow other species, such as coral, to colonize and grow by removing sponges from reefs.
We all know that there are many endangered species throughout the world. The word ‘endangered’ means that these species are at a high risk of becoming extinct if no steps are taken to protect to protect and restore their habitats. A number of these species are at a risk of extinction and are being threatened by industrialization, overhunting, or reckless population management practices. Most of these species get killed due to the fur or oil they produce or as a food source.
There are number of organizations like BNHS that are doing their part to protect disappearing wildlife and last remaining wild places. Their mission is to find solutions that save the marvelous array of life on our planet by applying the best science available and working closely with local communities.

We certainly want to do our part to keep them from going extinct in order to But you are just one person, so there is not anything you can do, right? Wrong. There are a number of things that you can do in order to make a positive impact on this wildlife. Being a responsible citizen, you should act on behalf of threatened and endangered wildlife – animals, fish, plants, and insects – and the wild places they call home.
MY SINCERE REQUEST AND APPEAL TO ALL MY FAMILY MEMBERS, FRIENDS AND OTHERS IS TO PLEASE HARNESS THE "ENDANGERED DREAM" & WORK TOWARDS SAVING THESE SPECIES AND EXPERIENCE "E - HAPPINESS"
THANKING YOU,
