Lion-tailed macaques rely on dense rainforest canopies to move around and find their preferred food. Their picky diet and limited habitat make these macaques particularly vulnerable to changes in the environment. The Western Ghats, their only home, faces high human disturbances, reducing the quality of their habitat and pushing the disappearance of these canopy species.
Up next in our campaign, our doctoral fellow Sikha Hariharan is working to understand how human activities affect these magnificent lion-tailed macaques and their only source of natural food and shelter. This knowledge is vital in keeping the remaining ~3,500 macaques in the wild alive.
Sikha has made strides towards her conservation research with support from the Markandaiah Small Grants Program and IdeaWild. She and our other doctoral fellows urgently need your help to reach their target of ₹10,00,000 to be able to continue their groundbreaking conservation research.

Over the next few weeks, we will share with you stories of our doctoral fellows' amazing research projects from across India. It is our hope that you will be inspired to empower these young scientists.
