Hey Rashmi,
I had sent an announcement regarding volunteering opportunity with CWS. I
think that was mistaken to be a similar one that was sent earlier to Yeti
regarding volunteering opportunity with a different project from CWS
I am sending it again. Could you please circulate it in YETI group as soon
as possible?

*Volunteer with CWS in Project on Wildlife Conflict Surveys in Maharashtra*

Maharashtra in 2013. We are looking for volunteers to help in data
collection along with the research team. Volunteers will have to be fluent

days).

following information ONLY in the exact format below (Please provide all
requested information).
