Red Panda is a small arboreal mammal, endemic to the Himalayas, ranging from Nepal in the west to China in the east.

The grasslands in and around Shuklaphanta Wildlife Reserve (SWR) are under immense pressure from livestock grazing.

With less than 3500 tigers left in the wild (2010 status), it is vital to preserve and restore remaining habitat to ensure survival of this endangered species.

Human-elephant conflict (HEC) has been widely recognized as one of the major conservation challenge in Nepal.

Surveys between 1987 and 1997 documented only three isolated sub-populations: Chitwan-Parsa, Bardia and Shuklaphanta, with no reported occurrence east of the Bagmati River.

Himalayan Nature has a permanent field centre known as Kosi Bird Observatory (KBO), serving as the field education and research centre to study bird ecology.
