Conservation Efforts Launched to Protect Endangered Malvi Camel Breed in India
The rare Malvi camel breed in India, with only 102 animals remaining, is classified as endangered due to a sharp population decline reported in the 2019 livestock census. The National Research Centre on Camel (NRCC) has initiated a scientific breeding and conservation program, acquiring 12 camels to preserve the breed's genetic identity. Found mainly in Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, the Malvi camel is valued for its milk and traditional uses. Socio-economic changes have contributed to its dwindling numbers, prompting awareness efforts among farmers.
