Bhutan authorities, hydropower project to revive critically endangered heron ecosystems (opens the original)
Read excerpt
THIMPHU – More than 30 kilometres of riverine habitat critical to the critically endangered White-bellied Heron (WBH) has been disturbed by the Punatsangchhu-I and Punatsangchhu-II hydropower projects. However, around 11.6 hectares of habitat within the project sites have since been restored out of the 50 hectares targeted under a broader restoration initiative, according to the Royal Society for Protection of Nature (RSPN).

Read excerpt
PUNAKHA – For 62-year-old Dorji of Dawakha in Toedwang Gewog, nights once meant standing guard over his crops, shouting and banging tins to scare away wild animals. Today, he no longer has to.

Her story reflects a growing reality for many Bhutanese couples who are choosing to stop at one or two children. While the desire
Bhutanese couple trades Australian dream for roots back home in Bhutan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
WANGDUE – After more than seven years in Australia, Yeshey Choden and her husband Dawa Gyeltshen, both in their early 30s, had built the kind of life many dream of.
