उत्तर
| Interview: "A Conversation with the Great Indian Bustard" | |
| Interviewer: | Hello everyone! Today, we have a very special guest joining us - the rare and majestic bird that’s almost a legend now... please welcome, the Great Indian Bustard! |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Thank you for inviting me! It’s an honor to meet all of you. I don’t get out much these days. |
| Interviewer: | We’re so lucky to have you! You’re one of the rarest birds in the world. Could you tell us more about yourself? |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Well, I am one of the heaviest flying birds—I can weigh up to 15 kg. I live in grasslands and dry plains, mostly in Rajasthan. I’m known for my beautiful brown and white feathers, long legs, and tall neck. I used to roam in large flocks across India, but now... there are fewer of us left. |
| Interviewer: | Why is that? What challenges do you face? |
| Great Indian Bustard: | My biggest problem is habitat loss. Humans are using my grasslands for farming, building roads, and cities. Also, those power lines that crisscross the land... they are very dangerous for us birds. Many of my friends and family hit them while flying and don't survive. |
| Interviewer: | That’s so sad. Is there anything being done to help? |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Yes, some conservation programs have started to protect us. The government and environmentalists are trying to save our habitats and make power lines safer by putting them underground. But it’s a race against time. We need more people to help. |
| Interviewer: | What can students like us do to help? |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Ah, you can do a lot! Start by raising awareness — tell others about endangered birds like me. Support conservation efforts and encourage adults to care for the environment. Little actions, like not littering and protecting nature, can make a big difference. |
| Interviewer: | Thank you! That’s great advice. Before we end, do you have any final message for us? |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Yes! Every living creature is important, whether it’s small or big. When one species disappears, it affects the whole environment. Please help save me and other endangered animals, so we all can live in harmony. |
| Interviewer: | Thank you so much, Great Indian Bustard! We’ve learned a lot from you today. We hope to see you soaring proudly in the skies for many more years! |
| Great Indian Bustard: | Thank you! With your help, I’m sure we can make that happen. |
