Explore the extraordinary biodiversity that includes stealthy wildcats, vibrant marine life like whales and fish, and countless other creatures that thrive in diverse ecosystems. These species not only captivate with their beauty but also play vital roles in maintaining the balance of our wildlife and natural environments, reminding us of the delicate interconnectedness of all life forms.

How Geography Constantly Pushes India & Pakistan to War

On April 22, 2025 a major terrorist attack took place near the town of Pahalgam in the Indian administered territory of Jammu and Kashmir. A group of armed attackers emerged from the woods surrounding a meadow and ambushed civilian tourists who were visiting the area. In total, 26 visiting tourists were killed in the massacre – all of whom were civilians, and nearly all of whom were Hindus – representing the deadliest terrorist attack on civilians in Jammu and Kashmir in more than 30 years and the deadliest attack on civilians anywhere in India since 2008. The risk of a massive war erupting between India and Pakistan has nearly always been present for decades but it appears to have increased in chances dramatically in recent times. In order to understand why this border is so militarised today and why Kashmir is such a dangerous and hotly disputed area you need to understand how modern India, Pakistan and Kashmir all came to be in the first place and for a lot of that – as with most other major modern controversial border disputes – you can thank the British.

Dollar designs offered in bid to ease housing woes

Slick housing designs costing only $1 are being deployed to get more homes built, but detractors have dubbed the promotion a “thirst trap”. The “pattern book” of low-rise designs including terraces, townhouses and manor houses could be ticked off for construction in 10 days. The designs, whipped up by internationally renowned architects as part of a NSW government competition, will be available for $1 for the first six months.
