With the support of the Department of Evaluation and Applied Research and the Tamil Nadu Forest Department, Care Earth completed a field assessment to monitor the impact of removal of Invasive Alien Species in the Nilgiris. Floral and faunal diversity, including invasive species in cleared and maintained sites were monitored. The project resulted in the preparation of a comprehensive monitoring report on the status of biodiversity with field data after the removal of invasive species in the target area with GPS coordinates and survey sketches.
