| Neethi Mahesh grew up fascinated by rivers in her early school days. She spent years surrounded by freshwater wildlife in the middle of a rainforest, and went on to study threatened aquatic animals. She won The Habitats Trust’s ‘Conservation Hero Grant’ in 2019 and works on the conservation of ‘riparian habitats’ of the Cauvery river in the Coorg district of Karnataka. We caught up with her to explore her passion for these unique and overlooked habitats.
