Every life form created by Nature has a purpose.
We too are part of this fragile web of life.
The earth is our only home and the urgency is to protect it.
Human beings are the only life forms that are capable of making a difference.
Collective effort is the only way we can make a difference.

How you can help
There are numerous ways you can help save our wildlife:
Stay Informed
The more aware you are of the status of India's wildlife and wild places, the more effective you will be in helping to save it. You can stay informed through the internet, current journals and the media.
Once you are armed with the knowledge of what is happening to India's wildlife, take action and spread the word to your friends, family and community leaders.
Take Action & Create Awareness
Keeping yourself informed about the peril of India's wildlife is a great place to start to make a difference - but to make a real impact - create awareness in your community and demand changes be made in India and internationally.
There are numerous things you can do to increase the level of awareness. For example you might:
- Organize an event that educates the public about wildlife.
- Research products you consume to ensure they were made sustainably.
- Write letters to the editor of a newspaper.
- Write letters/petitions to your community leaders.
- Write letters/petitions to national and international leaders.
- Don't purchase any product made out of tiger skin or bones.
- Involve yourself with the local villagers around sanctuaries in their cause and to put a stop on tiger poaching or any illegal action against them.
