Crocodiles' existence again in danger in river Chambal [1]

The declining water level of Chambal river, flouring from Madhya Pradesh to Uttar Pradesh, has lead to a decline in number of crocodiles here. The existence of crocodiles, dolphins and tortoises was under a severe threat, owing to the plummeting water of the river. Drying up of water bodies due to scorching weather has become a curse for the water inmates.
