Learning about tigers from their poop
Uma Ramakrishnan, NCBS, TIFR
Tigers are charismatic species that inspire us. What threatens tigers and what kind of research can scientists do to help save tigers? This is a question I and my laboratory colleagues have pursued for the last 15 years using tiger poop! In this session I will discuss the approaches we have taken, what we have found, and questions we continue to wonder about.
About the speaker: Uma Ramakrishnan is a professor at the National Centre for Biological Sciences. She has studied Indian biodiversity for the last fifteen years.
