Kashmir’s Red Stag critically endangered:
In order to get more attention and protection to Kashmir’s Red stag, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has decided to put Red Stag on the critically endangered species list.
The organisation is also aiming to enhance the conservation efforts to increase its declining population.
It is listed under Schedule-I of the Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and J&K Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1978 and has also been listed among the top 15 species of high conservation priority by the Government of India.
The cited reasons for the decline in its population are said to be habitat destruction, over-grazing by domestic livestock, and poaching.
