ACKNOWLEDGEMENT (Home Page)

GREETINGS TO all the passionate wild hearts from Wild Pratik: Secrets of Sylvan Eyes. This is Pratik Mahapatra from West Bengal, India, basically a student and independent researcher of English literary studies and humanities by occupational identity, as well as a wildlife fanatic and nature enthusiast by passion. A tough moment came when I got puzzled, thinking that due to the doldrums of several engagements, there would be no room for the active harvesting of wildlife activities. Finally, the hiatus came to an end with the introduction of a brand new journey. Here I present my blog on wildlife documentary reviews, travelogues, rescues and disparate activities, which eventually is commencing its journey on 5 June 2021, on the highly iconic occasion of World Environment Day. A visit to every genre is highly solicited. Need your support and good wishes since the combined prayers can be a precious touchstone in any endeavour.

  As promised the set got completely ready to etch its wild concerns. My personal orientation on the sphere of wildlife has been a journey of many years. Recently, I turned out to be fortunate enough to reach the milestone number of 1000 wildlife documentary films, incorporated into my own archival collection. 

  Indeed, it is a wonderful experience to have a few passionate hearts alongside me in the formation of the platform of this dream project. Referring once again to that very sylvan soul who has been and, will be my chief source of incentive on the trail of many journeys- Nilanjan Roy Chowdhury, widely known as R. C. Nilanjan by his pen name. Certainly, it is a matter of great pleasure to look back at those days when we were first introduced to each other, back in 2012, nine years ago! I was a student of the 10th standard at the moment. Now, our latest development concerning the endeavours of ANUBHAB: Expedition for Better Tomorrow is a real step to cherish- a trendsetting step that created affirmative vibes among several people including the progressive brigade of students from many academic institutions. Thanks to Nayanika Roychowdhury, especially for so many progressive sittings to develop both the platforms of Wild Pratik and Exploring the Wild, Nayanika's own bower of wildlife writings.

  I would like to convey my heartfelt gratitude to Jairaj Singh Parihar, Hena Sardar, Abhijit Banerjee and Deepak Ganguly for being the pioneering persons, who have bestowed me with enough reliance and inspiration for this journey. Their insightful suggestions turned out to be a great support. Again, 

  Sincere regards to Sneha Biswas for the wonderful graphic illustration of the emblem of Wild Pratik. We have been dedicatedly contributing to one sole project on an annual eco-calendar called "One Planet- for the Coming Ones", the Google Drive link of which has been incorporated into the sub-heading tabs. Warm regards to all, who have been providing with the much-needed incentive so far.
