Deep Ecology and Snake Conservation Foundation (DESCF) is a wildlife conservation organisation based in Bangladesh. Its current work focuses on herpetofauna conservation, public awareness, and human-wildlife coexistence.
Wildlife conservation in Bangladesh is shaped by habitat pressure, misinformation, fear-driven harm, and ecological change.
DESCF’s programme areas include both current work and areas now under preparation.
Awareness, communication, and response-related work focused on snakes, reptiles, and amphibians.
Status: Current
Educational outreach and wildlife communication intended to improve public understanding and reduce harmful responses.
Status: Current
A guided listening programme designed to help participants recognise birds, frogs, and other elements of the natural soundscape.
Status: Current
A seminar and discussion platform on listening-based wildlife observation and the emerging role of bioacoustics in conservation practice.
Status: In Preparation
An emerging focus on frog and toad calls as a pathway toward amphibian-focused monitoring and public learning.
Status: In Preparation
Linking biodiversity, ecological vulnerability, and future conservation design in Bangladesh.
Status: In Development
