Ukuba yonke into iwela endaweni, unxweme lwaseGujarat lunokuvela njengendawo yabakhenkethi yokubukela ookrebe. Iingcali zangaphandle zithathe iprojekthi yophando yokufunda ukuba kungenzeka na ekuphuculweni kokhenketho lwe-whale shark kurhulumente. Inkqubo yophando yenziwa phantsi kwe- "Whale Shark Conservation Campaign" ngokudibeneyo eqhutywa yiTata Chemicals Ltd, iWildlife Trust yaseIndiya (WTI) kunye nesebe lezomkhosi laseGujarat.

Iqela elinamalungu amahlanu leengcali ezivela e-Australia nase-US sele liqalisile ukusebenza kolu phando. “I-Australia nePhilippines ziye zaphuhlisa ezokhenketho ngokusekelwe kookrebe. Nangona kunjalo, kuninzi ekufuneka kwaziwe malunga nokufumaneka kookrebe kunye nexesha lokuhlala kwabo emanzini aseGujarat, utshilo uGqirha John Keesing weAustralia Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).
Malunga neepesenti ezingama-60 zookrebe abaza kutyelela unxweme lwaseGujarat ngookrebe ababhinqileyo kwaye iGujarat inokuba yenye yezona ndawo zibalulekileyo zokuzalela.
Ukulandela umkhondo wokuhamba kwe-whale shark, ezi ngcali ziya kusebenzisa i-satellite tags. "Ekuqaleni, sizakubeka iithegi ezi-6, ezizakudlulisa ulwazi malunga nokufuduka kookrebe," wongeze watsho.
I-Tata Chemicals ithathe iiprojekthi ezahlukeneyo zolondolozo lwendalo njengenxalenye yoxanduva lwayo kwezentlalo. Ezinye zezinto zibandakanya Gcina iiprojekthi ze-Asiatic Lions kunye noLondolozo lweeCoral Reef.
Ngaphantsi kweprojekthi yayo ye-Bio-diversity Reserve Plantation, i-80 hectaration isungulwe kwiintlobo ze-124 zeentlobo ezinjengengca, iiphemerals, izihlahla kunye nemithi. Ngoku, inkampani iceba ukukhulisa ii-acreage ukuya kwii-150 iihektare.
