I go to places to find, observe and photograph species and I am trying to make sense of it all, thus the path to becoming an ecologist!

Stray dog discussion is heating up in India, I donot wanna comment on it. But lately, I am seeing lot of post on "ecological importance of stray dogs". I just wanna say, that is big BS. Stray dog's are invasive species in our ecology. They destroyed 80+ native species 1/3

Forcing a student to apologise, not a new thing isn't it?
IISER Tirupati [Apology] Dear all, I write this thread with a confused mindset. I sincerely apologize for the words I used against the institute in the thread written on 6th July. It was unknowingly and unintentionally disrespectful.

Twitter is meant for sharing opinions , discussing problems , debating about them not to get threatened by institutes just cuz you criticise them , it's really concerning how institutes nowadays can't take criticism at all.

The master's degree came along with lots of epiphanies and solid friends. The five years were not perfect, but I would definitely live them again to the last minute detail if I get a chance to! But as they say ... the best is yet to come.

We, the graduating class of 2024 from IISER Bhopal, are facing severe issues regarding our convocation ceremony: 1️⃣Ignored concerns: Despite our polite emails, phone calls were dismissed with rude remarks, prioritizing the chief guest's availability over student needs.
