Wildlife Conservation Society - India
Wildlife Conservation Society – India (WCS-India) is a Section 25 non-profit organization dedicated to safeguarding India’s wildlife and natural habitats.Â
Guided by the global WCS mission, we focus on conserving species and ecosystems through science-based approaches, strategic policy engagement, and strong partnerships with governments, NGOs, and local communities. Our initiatives address key challenges such as habitat loss, poaching, illegal wildlife trade, and human-wildlife conflict.
By combining conservation action with community empowerment, WCS-India works to protect critical landscapes while improving the lives of people who share their environment with wildlife.
