The mouth of the tidal creeks and drivers, where salt and fresh water is mixed in ideal proportion, show the greatest concentration of mangroves as in Sunderbans. Sundarbans supports diverse biological resources including at least 250 species of commercially important fish, 270 species of birds, 42 species of mammals(including the Royal Bengal Tiger), 35 reptiles and 8 amphibian species. The Community Sunderbans is not only a land of mangroves, rivers and tigers. It is also home to 6 million people in India. Though agriculture and fishery is the major means of livelihood here, a large number of people depend heavily on forest products to earn their bread. Continuous threats from cyclonic storms, salinity increase and changing rainfall patterns have made their lives a struggle for existence. The famous phrase ‘a tiger on the land, a crocodile in the water’ has supposedly originated from this region. On May 20, A super cyclone called amphan (umphan) ripped through Sunderbans and #Sunderban #cyclonessunderban West Bengal. The mangrove and the villages in them bore the brunt of the cyclone, weakening it before it struck mainland. Salt water from the sea has entered the farmlands in the delta, destroying crops and evn trees. The paddy fields breached by salt water belie the great cyclone's fury and the human misery of the farmers. The Sunderbans is Bengal's first line of defence from the peropdical hurricanes that rise in the Bay of Bengal. Timely evacuation by the Government prevents human deaths but the people of this region pay a heavy economic price. The devastation is unprecedented, as was the storm — nearly 90 kilometres of embankments have either been breached or severely affected. Slideshow of photographs-from the Coffee Table book "Days in the Wild" by Biswajit Roy Chowdhury Video Susan Sharma and Anup Mondal Music T M Krishna Here is the writeup by Anup on the plight of Sunderbans after Ayas "This is a picture of the current misery of the people of Sundarban. It's been about four to five days since the tide is blowing in the villages of Sundarban. Most people have become homeless today. Salt water has swallowed the mud houses. The mud houses are completely finished. There is nothing left for them. Today many people are living some kind of sleepless night by leaving their homes and putting tents on the streets with polythene. The rice that was made for the whole year has also been wasted after getting salt water. How the future days will be spent with the fold of their thoughts in their forehead. What will they eat. Many people are spending their days starving today. Somehow to sustain life with a little relief dry food. There has been a huge shortage of drinking water. The cattle are dying without getting water and food. My heart is wrenching to see their stubborn eyes. Helpless stare at me in the hope of a little food. But what will happen?? The owner of the person who is standing in the search of life and death today. Cows, goats, sheep, fish, crabs, snakes, rats and dirty garbage rotting around has created a stinky situation. This has caused water borne diseases. Diarrhea has appeared in every house. There is no such arrangement for treatment. They may have survived from drowning in water... But will these helpless people of Sundarban survive in the epidemic that will take shape of various types of stomach diseases, fever and diarrhea....?? The question remains...??"
