More of what we do

  • Snake and reptile rescue

    Snakes, monitor lizards and crocodiles removed safely from homes, wells and building sites at any hour, then released into habitat that suits the species.

  • Urban and domestic animals

    Cows, dogs, cats and pigs, and the wildlife that strays into the city — monkeys, mongooses, nilgai and porcupines.

  • Bird rescue and Karuna Abhiyan

    Kite-string injuries, summer heat and fallen fledglings. Camps treating injured birds have run every year for the past ten years.

  • Disaster response

    A relief team for floods and other natural and man-made disasters — the Odisha and Banaskantha floods, and the Lumpy Skin Disease outbreak in Gujarat and Rajasthan.

  • Education and training

    Nature education camps, awareness programmes in schools and colleges, and training run together with government and non-government bodies.

  • Environment and biodiversity

    Tree plantation and conservation work, and water bowls and nesting boxes distributed for animals and birds through the summer.
