Who has taken over Karachi’s skies?

Wherever you look in Karachi these days, you can always spot an eagle. But this wasn’t always the case.

Karachi was once home to a diverse range of birds. Sindh Wildlife Department incharge Javed Mahar says the reduction in trees and increase in garbage and dirt has impacted the number of birds living in Karachi. It has attracted eagles instead since they thrive on waste and dirt for food.
