The Hangul or Kashmir stag (Cervus Elaphus Hanglu) a sub-species of European Red Deer is a critically endangered deer unique to Kashmir and the last genetically viable Hangul population of the world is at present restricted to Dachigam Park at Srinagar.

This would help us in evolving strategies for an effective long term management and conservation planning for Hangul and its habitats.

It has been a long time. My son is now seven and i'm seven months pregnant with my second and last child. It's a Boy I wanted a girl but God chose otherwise. I just started taking online classes at the University of Phoenix to finish my Bachelor's degree. I'm sure you have yours by now. I'm glad you and your kids are good it's nice to hear things like that. Once my son is born I'll have some pics made and i'll send you one. My family has been having some health issues one case could be life or death but I have faith. Keep us in your prayers as I will do the same for you and your family. Take care and I will keep in touch.
