YPS Meet | MAR 31 | 6:30 PM | State Youth Centre

From the deserts of Rajasthan, we will move on to the forests of India which have been the home of our rich wildlife, flora and fauna. The person taking you through a wildlife journey, a “never ending quest to feel complete”, will be Shri. Mahesh Reddy, an avid traveler, keen photographer and a serious nature conservation supporter.

Mr. Mahesh Reddy actively pursues the two of his greatest passions in LIFE, Photography  and Travel. Though he graduated to be a computer engineer, his love for travel woke up the Photographer in him, which drifted him away from computer languages & instead gave him a new way to see life through his lenses. What fascinates Mr. Mahesh is The Nature in itself, which is so colorful and vibrant.  His travels have helped him see different species of birds, wildlife, their style of living and to study their behavior.

Mr. Mahesh is also a member of India Wildlife Conservation Trust, a 12-member team on a serious quest to protect wildlife, conserve nature and create awareness among children about the nature. They  held a 4-day exhibition of their pictures at Chitrakala Parishath, Bangalore to spread awareness. They also conducted a couple of awareness programs under the banner of “Kanana Darshana” for the children living on the fringes of the forest. The aim of this program is to bring a lot of awareness amongst the children about the Wildlife conservation that includes forest fire, man-animal conflicts, saving trees, importance of forest essentials, poaching, making them take part in small conservation activities and educating on unlawful activities.
