Flamingo with injured leg rescued, released at NRI wetland in Nerul
A nature lover and wildlife photographer, Abhijit Chattopadhyay, helped rescue a flamingo with an injured left leg from the NRI wetland in Nerul Sector 58A on Monday. His distress call led to the rescue of the migratory bird by the forester, Vikas Bairagi, who admitted it to veterinarian Dr Kartik Iyer in Vashi for treatment. However, as recommended by the vet, the bird was released at the same spot as no artificial limbs could be provided and fixed.

Many have expressed concern over the hurdles the pink birds are facing here.

During successive visits, hoping to spot more flamingos, he noticed on the third day that the flamingo had not moved. The bird was released at the same spot on 6 May evening after a brief stay at the hospital. The bird was trying to walk, limping, using the force of its outstretched wing with each step. On the fifth day, Chattopadhyay was convinced that the bird was in distress and shared its photograph with others. He sought the assistance of the forester, Bairagi. The bird had no claws on its left leg when sighted initially. The flamingo was solo and almost a permanent member in the first left-hand side of the water body when someone enters the NRI wetland behind the NRI complex high rises. Initially, Chattopadhyay sought help from a flamingo catcher to ensure its leg was treated properly before releasing it to its natural habitat. The image taken by Chattopadhyay clearly shows that the bird lost its left foot/claw, which is why it was limping, putting pressure on its wings to take a step forward. The bird is suffering, and bird lovers hope it survives the odds in the absence of proper medical care. Chattopadhyay said, 'I don't know what kind of accident caused the injury, but imagining its struggle to walk is unbearable. An artificial claw seems like the only solution, yet feels like a distant dream in our country. I pray the Almighty brings some relief to this brave suffering soul.' Bairagi said, 'The bird lost part of its leg to an injury, but not naturally by birth. Hence, it was released as no artificial limbs can be provided.' A number of flamingos flock to the city wetlands, giving them a pink picturesque beauty, thereby attracting wildlife photographers from across the globe. The visitors watch and take photographs. Some of these photographs have been featured and awarded in international events. A major part of the city wetlands houses the migratory birds, with their presence adjoining the Thane Creek Flamingo Sanctuary. The city wetlands now face encroachment from the builders' lobby. Meanwhile, the recent sightings of injured flamingos have once again brought into sharp focus the urgent need for a veterinary hospital in the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) area, according to local environmentalists and animal welfare activists. The NMMC concrete structure for the animal hospital at Juinagar has been ready for about four years but the facility is yet to start, NatConnect Foundation pointed out. As a result, currently, wildlife enthusiasts must either seek assistance from charitable veterinarians or travel to facilities in Thane or Mumbai. NatConnect director B N Kumar pointed out that 'we keep coming across injured birds and animals, but unfortunately there is no veterinary hospital in the NMMC area.' He recalled that during the January-May period, close to 20 flamingos died around DPS and NRI wetlands. Some of them crashed into the huge signboard built for the Nerul jetty, while others got disoriented apparently due to light pollution in the area, Kumar said. Following public protests, CIDCO ultimately dismantled the hoarding. BNHS Deputy Director Dr Rahul Khot suggested to the NMMC engineers to change the lights in patches off Palm Beach Road toward DSP School and then near the Nerul Jetty road. The shade over the bulbs should be at a 45-degree angle so that the light flows downward and not sideward, which can impact the vision of the migratory birds, Dr Khot said. A forest official said the birds could be getting hurt when they crash into fishing nets, tree branches, or wires. Or big crabs could be hurting them when the birds cross their paths.

Why Edgewise Therapeutics Stock Popped This Week
On Thursday, an analyst launched coverage of Edgewise Therapeutics (NASDAQ: EWTX) stock, and the market took notice in a good way. On the back of his bullish view of the company, according to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, its share price vaulted nearly 14% higher across the week. An analyst finds his inner bull with the biotech That professional was Guggenheim's Debjit Chattopadhyay, who initiated his Edgewise Therapeutics coverage with a buy recommendation, and price target of $41 per share. That's well more than double the biotech stock's most recent closing price, just shy of $17. According to reports, Chattopadhyay wrote in his inaugural research note on Edgewise that with its attractive enterprise value (EV), combined with quite a promising pipeline, the company's stock has significant upside potential. That EV currently stands at over $1 billion, the analyst pointed out, and it has not one but two promising development programs. The first is EDG-7500, a treatment targeting obstructive and nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a heart disorder, and the second is Duchenne muscular dystrophy drug sevasemten. Clinical trial results should come in for both within the next year. A word of caution Given all that, Edgewise is in a better position than many other biotechs to succeed. We should always bear in mind with such companies, however, that much depends on their pipelines. If experimental drugs do well in the lab and ultimately win regulatory approval, the developer could be quite the winner on the stock market.

The Sunday Magazine for April 20, 2025
This week on The Sunday Magazine with Piya Chattopadhyay: The federal election campaign enters its final stretch With two debates down and one week to go in the federal election campaign, The Economist's Rob Russo, Le Devoir's Emilie Nicolas and Real Talk's Ryan Jespersen join Chattopadhyay to break down the state of the race and stakes for major party leaders as the 2025 election nears the finish line. Finding the funny in news satire when real life is no joke For people who work in the business of political satire and news comedy, there's no shortage of rich source material these days. But misinformation, disinformation and leaders who can seem stranger than fiction are complicating the craft. Chattopadhyay speaks with two veterans of the scene – The Beaverton 's Luke Gordon Field and a founding member of The Onion, Christine Wenc – about the challenges of skewering the news today, and how satire can help people make sense of the absurdity of real life. What the first and last words we speak say about us We may think of them as the most cherished or meaningful words we'll ever speak: Our first words as a baby, and our last words before we die. But as linguist Michael Erard explores in his book Bye Bye, I Love You, the significance of them varies according to culture and history, and their meaning is often supplied more by the listener than the speaker. He tells Chattopadhyay that they are nevertheless truly powerful, marking the beginning and end of our life connecting with others. 50 years ago, the Khmer Rouge began its reign of terror in Cambodia. Justice remains elusive April 17, 1975, marked the start of Year Zero, the attempt by the Khmer Rouge and its leader Pol Pot to "reset" Cambodia and fashion it into a new Communist society by purging swaths of culture, traditions and people. An estimated 1.5 to two million Cambodians were killed and hundreds of thousands fled to other countries, including Canada. The Sunday Magazine senior producer Howard Goldenthal looks at the legacy of that time, and how far we've come in attempts to pursue justice for war crimes since then.
