In Pakistan’s largest city, Karachi the chirping of birds is gradually fading away. Experts say construction activities have disrupted bird habitats, leaving behind predators which prey on tiny creatures.
According to experts, a significant reason for the increase in scavengers in Karachi is the heaps of garbage that are visible in various places. Every day, more than 12,000 tons of garbage is accumulated in the city, out of which only 5,000 tons are properly disposed of.
Sindh Wildlife conservator, Javed Mahar, says that the human population is expanding and bringing about massive changes in agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization.
