World Sloth Bear Day is observed on 12 October to raise awareness about the conservation of sloth bears (Melursus ursinus), a unique bear species native to the Indian subcontinent. Recognised by their shaggy black coats, long snouts, and specialised lips, sloth bears are remarkable insectivores that feed mainly on termites, ants, and other insects, along with fruits and honey. Sloth bears play an important ecological role by controlling insect populations and helping disperse seeds. However, habitat loss, human–bear conflict, road accidents, and poaching continue to threaten their survival. Protecting forests, maintaining wildlife corridors, and promoting community awareness are essential for their conservation.

Sambar deer frequently forage near forest edges, grasslands, water bodies, and dense woodland, selecting food according to seasonal availability. During the dry season, they may depend more on browsing, fallen leaves, and other available vegetation. Their flexible feeding habits help them survive in different forest habitats. As an important prey species for large carnivores, particularly tigers, their foraging behaviour also influences predator–prey interactions and the dynamics of forest ecosystems.

The Spotted Deer (Axis axis), also known as Chital, is a herbivorous ungulate that exhibits flexible foraging behaviour to meet its nutritional requirements. It feeds on a variety of grasses, leaves, shoots, fruits, and fallen flowers, depending on seasonal availability. Spotted Deer are primarily grazers but also browse on shrubs and trees when necessary. They often forage in herds, allowing individuals to feed while remaining alert to potential predators such as tigers and leopards. Their feeding activity varies with habitat conditions, food availability, temperature, and disturbance. During the dry season, they may concentrate around water sources and areas with fresh vegetation. By consuming grasses and other plant materials, Spotted Deer contribute to nutrient cycling and influence vegetation dynamics in forest ecosystems.

World Migratory Bird Day is celebrated every year on the second Saturday of May and October to raise awareness about the importance of migratory birds and the need to protect their habitats. It was started in 2006 by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS). The day highlights threats faced by these birds such as habitat loss, climate change, and pollution. Each year has a special theme; for example, the 2024 theme was “Protect Insects, Protect Birds.” People celebrate the day by organizing birdwatching events, awareness campaigns, and educational activities to encourage conservation of these amazing travelers of the sky.

The spiny-headed fan-throated lizard (Sitana spinaecephalus) uses its dewlap, a specialised throat fan, as an important tool for visual communication. During territorial disputes and courtship, males extend and display their dewlap, often combining it with rhythmic head-bobbing and push-up movements. These conspicuous signals help establish dominance, warn rival males, and attract potential mates. In open habitats, the vibrant display is easily visible to other lizards. This fascinating behaviour highlights how visual communication plays a vital role in the territorial and reproductive lives of these small reptiles.

We are pleased to have our guests experience the newly introduced entry fee initiative at Satara Village. We are grateful to our guests for co-participating in supporting ecotourism and the wellbeing of the local community.

At Svasara, we believe that travel can be a meaningful connection, where experiencing a place also means giving back to the people who call it home.

A heartfelt thank you to our guests who also contributed towards the Senior Citizens’ Wellbeing Fund. Their gesture will support the community and help their initiatives.

Satara Village is a wonderful example of what can be achieved when cleanliness, community participation and tourism come together.

Some dragonflies like The Ruddy Marsh Skimmer (Crocothemis servilia) have striking red or reddish-orange coloration, produced mainly by pigments and, in some species, by changes in the way light interacts with their body surface. This colour can have several biological advantages. Red coloration may help dragonflies recognize members of their own species and distinguish males from females. In some species, mature males become more intensely red as they age, making the colour an important visual signal during territorial and mating interactions. It may also communicate the dragonfly’s maturity and reproductive condition.

Feat. Khesari Saag or Lakhori Saag { Grass Pea | Chickling Pea | Lathyrus sativus }

A hardy, drought-resistant crop traditionally grown in low-rainfall regions, including parts of Vidarbha.

The tender leaves have a fleeting seasonal window, appearing for barely a month each year.

Locally, the fresh leaves are eaten raw, pounded into a rustic thecha or chutney, or simply stir-fried with minimal spices. At Svasara, we also fold the leaves into local breads such as thalipeeth and bajra roti, keeping the preparation simple and true to the ingredient.
