The Gharial, a fish-eating crocodile native to the Indian subcontinent, has seen its habitat reduced to only 2% of its former range due to human activities. Threats to their survival include habitat loss, unsustainable fishing, hunting, and egg collection. Conservation efforts such as captive breeding, habitat restoration, and community involvement are being implemented by organizations like the Gharial Conservation Alliance and the Wildlife Trust of India to protect this endangered species.
