On the Brink is an unprecedented portrait of India’s natural world that explores species and habitats rarely seen on Indian television.

How is wild India surviving in the 21st century? Grassroots conservationists unravel mysteries of the natural world and help us understand why species that once lived in large populations, are now literally On the Brink.
