Deosai Plateau in Northern Pakistan spread over 3,000 square kilometres is a place of astounding beauty, lush greenery, and biodiversity where the numbers of Himalayan bears were increasing previously, but now there’s a sharp decline in their population.

In five decades, the temperature has doubled compared to the rest of Pakistan, which is affecting not only the monsoon but also rapid changes on the plateau, making it difficult to see Himalayan brown bears.

In a documentary titled ‘Bears on the Brink- Deosai’ aired on The Express-News, the filmmaker elucidated that the Himalayan brown bears are in danger of extinction, climate-changing is not only causing malnutrition but also creating human-bear conflict.

Major South Asian cities like Mumbai, Karachi, Kolkata, Dhaka and Lahore offer a mix of glossy skyscrapers, bustling shopping centers, shanty slums and massive traffic jams like any other metropolises around the world.

Once natural habitats for birds, these metropolises have lost their precious wildlife not only through the ravages of time, but also because of increasing human influence.

As people get ready to observe World Sparrow Day on March 20, environmentalists and wildlife experts say the alteration of habitats, which is a direct result of unplanned urbanization and pollution, has badly affected the population of urban birds, mainly house sparrows, in major South Asian cities in the past two decades.

Pakistan’s largest city and commercial capital Karachi, second-largest city Lahore, northwestern city of Peshawar, garrison city of Rawalpindi and textile hub Faisalabad are among the most polluted cities in the region.

It was not long ago that fishermen would catch tons of palla -- one of the most delicious aquatic delights of Pakistan's southern Sindh province -- every day from the mighty Indus River.

The fish, a migratory species, which would enter the Indus River in large groups for breeding from the Arabian Sea, were so plentiful that the fishermen had even sold them to the locals for free.

On the weekends, thousands of picnickers from Karachi, the country's commercial hub and Sindh's capital would travel to the nearby districts of Hyderabad, Jamshoro, and Thatta to enjoy the distinctive taste of palla at scores of roadside restaurants and along the banks of the Indus River.

Today is World Snow Leopard Day- the king of the mountains

These spotted leopards live in the mountains across a vast range of Asia. The snow leopard’s habitat range extends across the mountainous regions of 12 countries across Asia: Afghanistan, Bhutan, China, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Russia, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. These big cats use their long tails for balance and as blankets to cover sensitive body parts against the severe mountain chill. They are shy and reclusive, and rarely seen in the wild.
