The Satara forest department has initiated steps to declare the Kiraksal-Kukudwad grassland region in Maandesh as a ‘conservation reserve’ to protect its rich biodiversity, rare wildlife, and native grassland ecosystem. The proposed conservation plan includes grassland restoration, wildlife monitoring, a leopard census, and eco-tourism initiatives.
