Ever wondered what it's like to be a woman in wildlife research? Presenting "Five Stree Takes," a video series in partnership with UN Women India, where we ask five exceptional young women in all kinds of professional fields on the challenges and joys of being great at what they do. Vitamin Stree is proud to announce itself as a UN WOMEN Generation Equality Ally. And our second episode is with conservation anthropologist, Dr. Saloni Bhatia!

Dr. Saloni Bhatia studies the relationship between humans and wildlife - particularly, humans and carnivorous predators! We asked Saloni five questions that you wanted to know about becoming a conservationist — on the career path to it, mental health and fieldwork, work-life balance, and how she followed her love for nature and wildlife.
