Video - Forest Guardian: Liora's Stand Against the Bulldozers

Liora darted through the dense forest, her heart pounding like a drum. She skidded to a halt, gasping at the sight of the ancient oak, its branches heavy with nests of endangered birds. "They're coming!" she shouted into her walkie-talkie. Moments later, bulldozers roared in the distance. "Not on my watch," she whispered fiercely, chaining herself to the tree. The machines rumbled closer, but her courage spread; villagers emerged, standing in solidarity. As dawn broke, the bulldozers retreated, defeated. Liora smiled, knowing they had won this battle, but the war for the environment was far from over.
