Guwahati school students document 1,517 species in biodiversity survey

Students from a Guwahati school spent a month cataloguing local wildlife, recording 1,517 distinct plant and animal species. The project, organized as a citizen‑science effort, seeks to build a continuous, real‑time database that can support climate‑resilience planning. Researchers hope the student‑generated data will inform future conservation strategies across the region. The work involved teachers and community volunteers.
