Wildlife SOS, Conservation organization in New Delhi, India
Wildlife SOS is a conservation organization operating multiple rescue centers and animal hospitals across India that provide medical care and rehabilitation for injured and exploited animals. The facilities combine traditional and modern veterinary techniques to offer comprehensive treatment.
The organization was founded in 1995 by Kartick Satyanarayan and Geeta Seshamani, beginning its work in a garage in Delhi rescuing small animals. It gradually expanded to become a nationwide institution responding to hundreds of animal emergencies annually.
The organization partners with Kalandar communities through education programs and alternative income opportunities to reduce animal exploitation. These efforts show how local people can become key partners in protecting wildlife.
The organization operates five emergency hotlines available 24/7 for immediate response to wildlife emergencies and animal distress situations. Contact these lines when you encounter an injured or suffering animal that needs assistance.
The organization established India's first dedicated elephant hospital, blending traditional Indian veterinary practices with modern medical equipment. This facility addresses the specific health needs of these large animals with specialized care.
