In Kashmir, there's a special animal called the hangul, or Kashmir stag. They used to be everywhere in the beautiful forests of Kashmir. But now, they're in big trouble and might disappear forever.
Hanguls are from Kashmir and have lived there for a long time. People love them because they look so nice and move gracefully. They used to be seen all over Kashmir, showing how strong and adaptable they were.
But now, there aren't many left. Less than 300 hanguls are still alive in the wild in Kashmir. This is very serious, and experts say they're in danger of disappearing forever.
Most Hanguls now live in a place called Dachigam National Park, near Srinagar. It's a great place for them because it has lots of trees, meadows, and clean streams where they can live happily.
There are a few reasons why hangups are in trouble. People are taking over their homes by cutting down trees, farming, and building things. This means there's less space for hanguls to live and find food.
Many people and groups are trying hard to help hanguls. They're doing things like protecting their homes and talking to others about why it's important to save them.
But even with all these efforts, hangups are still in danger. We need to act fast to save them and make sure they stay around for a long time. Their story teaches us how important it is to take care of our planet and the animals that live here.
