Problems faced by birds

Due to the loss of habitat, prey and heavy hunting for meats, some of the Indian birds are on the verge of extinction. The life of birds is no more a bed of roses for they face various problems during their existence on the earth. Poaching and massive hunting took these beautiful species birds into the category of critically endangered birds of India. Their natural habitat - forests - are being cleared away to provide for human settlements, thus encroaching upon their space. Great Indian bustard, Indian Vulture, Himalayan quail, and Siberian Crane are few species of birds who are facing critical problems of extinction. Many birds are caught and caged and this prevents their breeding in natural circumstances. Further, due to the shrinking of water bodies, birds are almost dying for want of water and food. Deforestation is another major offender of birds and a threat to their existence. The exciting and fun-filled kite flying provides children and often adults with much joy and thrill, but does one realize the injuries inflicted on birds when they come in contact with the manga. A study by the International Crane Foundation said the last confirmed sighting of Siberian cranes in India was in 2002. Another report states that in 1974 close to 75 birds wintered in Bharatpur which declined to a single pair in 1992. In more recent times, the setting up of mobile towers are causing much harm to the birds by the radiation.

Extend the given extract by adding an imaginary paragraph of your own (about 120 words)

A couple of days later, I was walking around the camp, around the barracks, near the barbed-wire fence where the guards could not easily see. I was alone.

On the other side of the fence, I spotted someone: a little girl with light, almost luminous curls. She was half-hidden behind a birch tree.

I glanced around to make sure no one saw me. I called to her softly in German. 'Do you have something to eat?'

She didn't understand.

I inched closer to the fence and repeated the question in polish. She stepped forward. I was thin and gaunt, with rags wrapped around my feet, but the girl looked unafraid. In her eyes, I saw life.

She pulled an apple from her woollen jacket and threw it over the fence.

I grabbed the fruit and, as I started to run away, I heard her say faintly, 'I'II see you tomorrow."

Its scientific goals are to study the chemical, mineralogical and photogeological mapping of the moon. In addition to find out water on the moon. Then to perform high resolution remote sensing of the moon’s surface.

The Chandrayaan-2 mission was successfully launched on 22nd July, 2019 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota. The primary objectives were to demonstrate the ability to soft land and operate a robotic rover on the lunar surface.

The mission was arranged to study the lunar topography, mineralogy, elemental abundance and the lunar ecosphere, conduct a detailed search for water and ice in polar region. Chandrayaan 2’s objectives are to find Chandrayaan-1 as reported by the ISRO. The mission targeted the “South Polar region” of the moon which was completely unexplored. The mission focused on the extensive mapping of the lunar surface for studying variations in its composition and tracing the moon's origin and evolution.
