They lost their husbands to tiger attacks. Now, these “tiger widows” are helping restore the very forest their families depend on.
In the Sundarbans, women who lost their husbands to tiger attacks are planting 1 lakh mangrove saplings across 100 hectares of degraded habitat.
Why mangroves?
They help protect villages from cyclones, support wildlife and sustain local livelihoods—making them vital for both people and the ecosystem.
By restoring degraded mangrove forests, these women are helping rebuild tiger habitat while strengthening the communities that live alongside it.
Their story shows that conservation can protect both people and wildlife and that even after immense loss, communities can become powerful forces for restoring nature.
From grief to action, these women are helping give the Sundarbans a chance to thrive again. 🌱
What can communities do to protect both people and wildlife?
