Declarations
:
: The proposed research on birds (waterbird species) was duly approved by the Institutional Ethical Committee (IEC), PMAS-Arid Agriculture University Rawalpindi, Pakistan (Ref No. PMAS-AAUR/IEC/15), before the field survey concerning ethnomedicinal data collection and intellectual property rights of informants. We declared that all curative properties are simply described as ethnographic folklore with no proven beneficial effect on human health. This study is based on a field survey rather than human or animal trails. However, verbal consent was taken from participants regarding data collection and publication. In addition, the ethical guidelines and rules of the International Society of Ethno-biology (ISE) (ExternalRef removed) were strictly followed.
