The endangered mahseer of cauvery

[headbanger_jib]

In search of the almost lost species, the hump back mahseer, a mahseer from the river cauvery.

We found pickled and dried specimens at the natural history museum.

The work and search and research, being done by mahseer trust, I just tagged along for the ride.

Sounds exciting. So are you part of the team? You're so lucky to be so close to the action. I'm jealous.

I am not a part of the team, as these people are mostly anglers, and I am a worse than a noob when it comes to that, although the river stretch where they plan to do research and conservation, some part of that river bank happens to be our farmhouse.
