An endangered greater adjutant stork (Leptoptilos dubius), with a baby in its nest in Dadara village, west of Gauhati, India. For decades the big and awkward looking carnivore and scavenging bird was the object of revulsion in its home in northeast India until a group of women took it upon themselves to raise awareness of its plight. They called themselves the hargila army, for the bird’s name in the local Assamese language. Photograph: Anupam Nath/AP
