Abishek is a population ecologist with Panthera’s Tiger program. He is broadly interested in population ecology, law enforcement monitoring, measuring conservation effectiveness, and conservation decision making. Currently, his work involves developing metrics for measuring short-term impacts of conservation actions in tiger conservation landscapes. Email: aharihar[at]panthera.org, aharihar[at]ncf-india.org
