First-year students in Principles of Wildlife Ecology recently immersed themselves in real-world learning during field classes at Lunugamvehera National Park, Anawilundawa Sanctuary, and Bellanwila-Attidiya Wetland Reserve. Under the guidance of Dr. Sandali Dissanayake, participants collected scientific data, conducted birdwatching surveys, joined a community cleanup session, and explored core principles of wildlife ecology, conservation, and management practices.
These dynamic outings bridged classroom theory with practical skills, fostering a deeper understanding of habitat dynamics, biodiversity monitoring, and sustainable stewardship in Sri Lanka’s vital ecosystems. Students returned inspired, equipped to tackle real conservation challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
