Strange bird village looking to die

Jatinga - This small village in northern India is like most other small and peaceful villages. Except one thing: every year, from September to November, hundreds of birds gather here and there. This bizarre phenomenon has happened for decades in this quiet town and so far has not had a reasonable explanation.

The village of Jatinga is always full of vitality, with a pleasing landscape, also an ideal stop when visiting Borail Hill, in Dima Hasao district in India. Known as the center of the Dima Hasao district, Jatinga is also known for being home to a variety of migratory birds such as kingfishers, crested tails, dead-end tails, meager, gray herons and emerald doves and a wide variety of other birds.

These birds are very active during the day. However, around September and October, hundreds of birds will plunge themselves, stabbing their heads into buildings or trees in search of death. More strangely, this phenomenon only happened between 7pm and 10pm on the main roads of the village. To attract more tourists, this village even built up the 'bird watch towers' to observe this bizarre phenomenon.

this has lasted for more than 100 years in Jatinga but researchers have yet to uncover the veil of mystery around it.

In recent years, the Indian Animal Research Institute has established a bird watching center near Jatinga. They collected more than 20 species of birds that flew to the village to commit suicide. The observation center also places a library of birds and a bird farm here to feed the birds that have not died yet.

Seeing this phenomenon, Salim Ali, India's leading bird researcher, said. ' The most strange thing for me about this monstrous phenomenon is that many birds have a habit of activating during the daytime, but why do they gather at night, time should also be asleep. . The issue needs to be dissected in many different scientific perspectives. '

Some argue that it is a natural result due to the habit of being attracted by the light of some birds and they accidentally fly straight to the light source without any precaution.

Meanwhile, many bird research experts believe that there is some connection between this phenomenon and the electromagnetic force in the area created by the special geography of Jacinta region.

The phenomenon of mass suicide birds in Jatinga is said to have been around since 1905, when the people in the region witnessed the " black bird clouds" descending from the sky. In 1957, a study by British expert, Gee EP wrote about this suicide phenomenon, called 'Wild Life of India'.

It is also because of this strange that the village of Jatinga attracted thousands of visitors to see . suicide birds.
